Do not log-transform count data
Robert B. O'Hara,D. Johan Kotze +1 more
TL;DR: It is recommended that count data should not be analysed by log-transforming it, but instead models based on Poisson and negative binomial distributions should be used.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of Bayesian variable selection methods: what, how and which
TL;DR: The results suggest that SSVS, reversible jump MCMC and adaptive shrinkage methods can all work well, but the choice of which method is better will depend on the priors that are used, and also on how they are implemented.

So Many Variables: Joint Modeling in Community Ecology.
David I. Warton,F. Guillaume Blanchet,Robert B. O'Hara,Otso Ovaskainen,Otso Ovaskainen,Sara Taskinen,Steven C. Walker,Francis K. C. Hui +7 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates the potential of a new class of multivariate models for ecology to specify a statistical model for abundances jointly across many taxa, to simultaneously explore interactions across taxa and the response of abundance to environmental variables, and discusses recent computation tools and future directions.
