Abstract: Non-standard statistical problems in the Alaska Predator Ecosystem Experiment (APEX) in Prince William Sound, Alaska, include severe logistical constraints on field sampling plans, analysis of data with unequal length transacts, spatially correlated data, and estimation of ratios of random variables. My responsibility as a biometrician is to provide review of and advice for study designs in order to help insure that appropriate statistical inferences can be made during the analysis phase of the studies. I will also provide advice and assistance during statistical analysis of data and report preparation.
