Metaanalysis is a powerful statistical methodology for synthesizing research evidence across independent studies. This is the first comprehensive handbook of metaanalysis written specifically for ecologists and evolutionary biologists, and it provides an invaluable introduction for beginners as well as an uptodate guide for experienced metaanalysts.The chapters, written by renowned experts, walk readers through every step of metaanalysis, from problem formulation to the presentation of the results. The handbook identifies both the advantages of using metaanalysis for research synthesis and the potential pitfalls and limitations of metaanalysis (including when it should not be used). Different approaches to carrying out a metaanalysis are described, and include moment and leastsquare, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian approaches, all illustrated using worked examples based on real biological datasets. This oneofakind resource is uniquely tailored to the biological sciences, and will provide an invaluable text for practitioners from graduate students and senior scientists to policymakers in conservation and environmental management.Walks you through every step of carrying out a metaanalysis in ecology and evolutionary biology, from problem formulation to result presentationBrings together experts from a broad range of fieldsShows how to avoid, minimize, or resolve pitfalls such as missing data, publication bias, varying data quality, nonindependence of observations, and phylogenetic dependencies among speciesHelps you choose the right softwareDraws on numerous examples based on real biological datasets
