Assume all coefcients equal to 1. Sketch each one of the tidal time series model components for
one period. Then graphically add all the components. Sketch the periodogram for each component
and for the total tidal elevation.
Exercise 7.2
Consider a longitudinal transect of 100 m along a direction N-S, establish a starting point as distance
d = 0 m and that we record the distance from this datum to each one of the points where we detect
the presence of a plant species. Assuming that detections are independent and that the expected rate
is 0.1 plants/m. Use a ...
