Modules

This course is divided into separate modules, each designed to give you a hands-on experience working in teams to reproduce or examine a fundamental result in global change ecology. Each module will also introduce a different type of data and different tooling to handle it, as described in the summaries below. Weekly readings and introductory live-code sessions will provide some necessary background, but real learning will happen only by doing. Workflow and communication are central elements to each module. All work should appear in professional and well documented format using RMarkdown notebooks in the project GitHub repository and pass all automated checks on Travis-CI.
