About This Website

This website contains course materials for the Spring 2025 edition of Environmental Data Analysis and Simulation, taught by Vivek Srikrishnan at Cornell University.

Acknowledgements

Much of the material for this course has evolved from discussions and work with Klaus Keller, Tony Wong, Casey Helgeson, Ben Seiyon Lee and James Doss-Gollin. Many thanks also to Andrew Gelman, Richard McElreath and Christian Robert, whose work heavily inspired many aspects of this course and which I refer back to regularly. Kieran Healy also wrote an outstanding book on Data Visualization which I learned a great deal from and still reference.

The layout for this site was also inspired by and draws from STA 210 at Duke University and Andrew Heiss’s course materials at Georgia State.

Tools and Generation Workflow

This website was built with Quarto, which allows me to integrate Julia code and output with the web content, pdfs, and slides in an amazingly clean fashion, while simplifying the process of generation. All materials can be generated through a simple workflow from the [GitHub Repository].
