Our next book on coastal ecosystem assessment
Jane Thomas ·We have all been working hard this week trying to finish up our next book, entitled "Integrating and Applying Science: A handbook for effective coastal ecosystem assessment."
Here's a little sneak peek at the book. We have structured it around the information in this triangle:
It covers collecting and analyzing scientific data, through to integrating that into information and knowledge, and how to apply that knowledge to change society and solve environmental problems.
Here are the PDFs of the section introduction pages. Please click on the image to load the PDF file.
We'll let you know when it's published!

This book looks like something I could use for an undergraduate course at University of Delaware. Are pre-prints available for inspection?
