Winter habitat conservation project - 2007/04/09 20:03 Hello. My name is Rodrigo Alatorre, a graduate student from ITAM University, in Mexico City. I'm currently working on a project on the economic valuation of mexican coastal wetlands as winter habitats of migrating shorebird species.

¿How is this relevant to conservation? Our study's purpose is to calculate the economic value for the environmental service a wetland offers as shelter for shorebirds during their migration. With this economic value we intend to make public policy designers and decision makers aware of the real cost that society bears when these ecosystems are damaged

This is a non-lucrative project. And you can contribute to it.

All you have to do is:

• Be a birdwatcher.
• Answer the following survey. It takes no more than 2 minutes and is completely anonymous.

Winter habitat conservation project - 2007/04/19 18:33 By now we have about 179 full surveys but our sample needs 600 just to get to a 97 % confidence degree; because there are many birdwatchers at the US and Canada. But with these forums we hope to get as many as possible
