Help make fieldwork less dangerous for scientists around the world.
We kindly request your participation in a survey designed to improve safety and productivity for field ecologists and field researchers. Scientists who conduct field research often work in remote natural settings where some level of danger is taken for granted. The Peregrine Fund, a non-profit conservation organization in the USA, and Boise State University request […]
