To: announce-l@odin.cciw.ca Subject: ANNOUNCE-L: Two new EMAN projects available I would like to invite you to take a look at two new Ecological Monitoring and Assessment Network (EMAN) projects that have been completed this year. They are available outside the EMAN Coordinating Office (L149). Monitoring Biodiversity Change: Protocols to measure species diversity This ID-ROM offers a bilingual compilation of the Canadian Biodiversity Science Board's protocols for measuring species diversity in Canada. Each protocol is available in Adobe PDF format. The work is a partnership between the Biodiversity Science Board, the EMAN, Environment Canada's EMAN Coordinating Office, and endorsed by the new Canadian Biodiversity Knowledge Innovation Network (formerly known as the Canadian Biodiversity Network). Landscape Changes at Canada's Biosphere Reserves This ID-ROM presents a summary of landscape changes at six of Canada's Biosphere Reserves who are partners in the larger EMAN. It was prepared in partnership with the Canadian Biosphere Reserves Assocation (CBRA), the Canada Man and the Biosphere Programme (Canada MAB), EMAN, and the EMAN Coordinating Office of Environment Canada. Environment Canada's Science Horizons program played a large role in the development of this document. Both products are also available from the EMAN website at http://eqb-dqe.cciw.ca/ in both HTML and PDF format.
