The research survey closes 1st of July, last chance to be heard! It takes only takes 5 to 15 minutes, just follow this link to accept this invitation to take the (anonymous) research survey... https://microsoft.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_80yEiYdFCj7Q3dO
If you model Niches, Habitat Suitability, Climate Response Surfaces, Climate Envelopes, Bio-climate envelopes, Species Distributions (etc...) ? Using software, such as BIOMOD, BIOMAPPER, CANNOCO, GARP, MARS , MAXENT, MODECO, OPENMODELLER, R, RANDOM FORESTS, (etc...), then we would love you to participate! https://microsoft.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_80yEiYdFCj7Q3dO What do you want to do with the software and how? Is our Science "intertwined with technical innovation..." and "dependent on the existence of suitable software"? (Thuiller et al. 2009, Ecography, 32, 369-373) We will publish aggregated results so the modelling community & developers (everyone!) benefits from this research project. It is all anonymous (you can find the project and privacy information here... http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/sdmsoftwaresurvey/ If you have any questions please email us at sdmqu...@microsoft.com<mailto:sdmqu...@microsoft.com> Best wishes Greg, Lucas, & Lara The Research team We (Greg McInerny, Lucas Joppa and Lara Salido) are Ecologists in the Computational Ecology and Environmental Sciences group in the Computational Science Laboratory at Microsoft Research Cambridge, UK.
