collection, and mobile-oriented access to these resources – to our collective work at GlobalRangelands.org. The core project teams are at Idaho and Arizona, but we’ll be engaging a number of RP members for help and expertise as the project progresses. I’ve
attached the project “factsheet” and proposal narrative to provide more details about it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
