Allometries and Close-range Technologies

Do you have data from destructive measurements (traditional approach) paired with scans from close-range technologies? This kind of data is quite scarce and involves much work. Therefore, the value of this data, combined from different locations/countries, is even greater, and we would really appreciate it if you could help us in the compilation of information to improve our knowledge of this topic.

If you can provide this kind of data (together with a review of the manuscript), we would like to offer you co-authorship in the publication for your datasets (one person per dataset).

So, if you have such data, please go to the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxzMkKwQ-TbytK8_ERjcq57ZIl4eRL3REFlwCGrtBotrS2gg/viewform

In case you have any doubt, please do not hesitate to contact us: meinrad.abegg@wsl.ch and menendez.maria@inia.csic.es.
