A Course In Data Science: R And Prediction Modeling, Adam Kapelner
Open Educational Resources
This is a self-contained course in data science and machine learning using R. It covers philosophy of modeling with data, prediction via linear models, machine learning including support vector machines and random forests, probability estimation and asymmetric costs using logistic regression and probit regression, underfitting vs. overfitting, model validation, handling missingness and much more. There is formal instruction of data manipulation using dplyr and data.table, visualization using ggplot2 and statistical computing.

As part of an ongoing effort to update the ground snow load maps in the United States, this paper presents an investigation into snow densities for the purpose of predicting ground snow loads for structural engineering design with ASCE 7. Despite their importance, direct measurements of snow load are sparse when compared to measurements of snow depth. As a result, it is often necessary to estimate snow load using snow depth and other readily accessible climate variables. Existing depth-to-load conversion methods, each of varying complexity, are well suited for snow load estimation for a particular region or station network, but …

Here is a database (in Stata, R, SAS, SPSS formats) that was used to demonstrate simple slopes analysis in meta-regression in an online supplement to the article, "Panning for the gold in health research: Incorporating studies’ methodological quality in meta-analysis," published in the journal Psychology & Health in 2014. It is an archive (zip) file that also contains the Stata syntax used in the demonstrations.
