conbio-data-analysis

separate

Use when executing and reporting the analysis for a Conservation Biology manuscript so it survives expert, double-blind review — appropriate ecological/statistical models, honest uncertainty, robustness, and reproducibility. Covers detection, hierarchical models, spatial structure, and effect sizes that matter for conservation. Guides analysis norms; it does not fabricate results.

When to use

• Running main and supporting analyses
• Building the results section
• Addressing reviewer requests for robustness or alternative models
• Reconciling exploratory vs. confirmatory analyses
• Making the analysis reproducible before deposit
• Auditing unit, comparison, uncertainty, and reproducibility
• Translating estimates into decision-relevant quantities

When not to use

• Fabricating results
• Design decisions
• Polishing prose without evidence audit
