Notes and readings for 10/22

Updated notes and suggested readings for Wednesday, 10/22 are now available. Given that I want to finish our discussion of reserve design principles and go over the Massachusetts BioMap program, we're not likely to cover the ecosystem management notes in detail. I hope you'll still want to take a look at them.

I'm making progress on having the papers graded. If my strength holds out (or if I get up really early tomorrow morning) I'll be able to hand them back tomorrow. If you see this message before lecture tomorrow, I'd like you to think about one thing. It's possible that I'll have all except 3-4 of the papers graded. If that's the case, I'll give you the following option:

Without letting anyone know whether they're one of the 3-4 left to go or not, I could hand back the papers to those whose papers I've finished grading and ask the others to stop by on Thursday to pick up their papers. That way everyone would get their papers back sooner. To make up for the inconvenience to those who wouldn't get their papers back tomorrow, I'd give them a 2-day extension on project #2.

Think about it. There's a decent chance I'll be presenting you with this option tomorrow.
