We finally submitted our book “Remote Sensing and GIS for Ecologists” to the publisher. It took longer than anticipated and we learned a lot. Looking forward to the printed version.
More details how to order and the expected publishing date can be found at http://www.pelagicpublishing.com/remote-sensing-and-gis-for-ecologists.html
we will post news and updates about the book and its content at book.ecosens.org
