Revised List of Essential Quantitative Skills

Since our first pass at a quantitative skills vocabulary, we have interviewed and surveyed geoscientists at a number of conferences and workshops. From these interactions, we have pared the original list down to reflect the vocabulary that geoscientists seem to use.

We'd like feedback on this list of skills. Does it cover the quantitative skills you think are important? Is it sufficiently detailed to allow accurate descriptions and precise searching? Is it sufficiently concise to be easy to work with? Are there regroupings or expansions of these terms that would make the vocabulary more useful? Please help us make this vocabulary better by testing it.
