Hello,
I am sorry I don't have something to offer. But I am wondering if the
class and its materials will be available online?
What you are offering is exactly what my lab (working on mapping and
analyses of marine conservation) and one of my colleague's group (land
use by indigenous people in the Ecuadorian rain forest) need...
Thanks!
