Dear Land Change Modeler*:
The U.S. National Academy of Sciences, through its National Research Council (NRC), is assessing the future research requirements for spatially explicit land-change models and needs your input (committee details below).
We kindly ask that you complete a short, five question, on-line questionnaire: http://dels-registration.nas.edu/s3/LCM. This is a small survey, going only to a select group of individuals, so your response will be valuable to the committee. Please complete the questionnaire by May 1 if possible.
Sincerely,
The NRC Committee on Needs and Research Requirements for Land-Change Modeling
- if you are not a modeler, our apologies and please forward this message to your modeler colleague(s).
