(2009) suggest that our science is "intertwined with technical innovation..." and how it is "dependent on the existence of suitable software" (Thuiller et al. 2009, Ecography, 32, 369-373).<br>What do you want to do with software and how? We are researching these questions.<br><br>As users and developers of R and R packages we would love you to participate, obviously the best information will come if all types of users and all software are well represented.<br><br>Please accept this invitation to take the (anonymous) research survey on Species Distribution Modelling and Software. It takes only takes 5 to 15 minutes, just follow this link...<br><a href="https://microsoft.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_80yEiYdFCj7Q3dO">https://microsoft.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_80yEiYdFCj7Q3dO</a><br>The survey is open until 1st of July, but please complete as soon as possible! Your views and experiences are immensely valued!<br><br>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/default.aspx).<br><br>If you have any questions please email us here<mailto:sdmquest@microsoft.com?subject=SDM%20Survey><br>Best wishes<br>Greg, Lucas, & Lara<br><br><br>The Research team<br><br>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. We frequently use SDM and are interested in all kinds of ecological and methodological questions.
