Hi All,

Great discussion today! Don't forget that in Monday is holiday to remember and honor the legacy of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. There is no class on Monday.

From Nick:

Readings for Tuesday are in the syllabus.

From Ben:

Complete the assignment at the end of Background, commit and push your work to your github repository.

Related note: Many have discovered that it is easy to modify the '.qmd' files to suit your own needs. I suggest that instead of editing the original that you make a copy and edit that. For example, make a copy of 'C02_background.qmd' and name the copy something like 'S02_background.qmd' where the "S" indicates "Student" (or whatever naming scheme you prefer.) Save it at the same directory level as the original file. That way you can make modifications for your own work with worrying about losing the content of the original.

Hi everyone,

I did forget to mention one thing before we left yesterday. In the syllabus schedule for Thursday I wrote:

Optional assignment: Work on the introduction for the final writeup. Recall the orienting questions: What is your species? Why is it important? What are some of the management, industry, or conservation decisions that could benefit from a forecast? If you send me text with citations by Monday, I'll get feedback to you over the course of the week.

So... if you'd like to get some early feedback on your text, send along your intro.

Have a nice weekend.

Nick
