Quantitative Problem Solving in Natural Resources / Introduction

"An authentic quantitative problem is an intellectual challenge involving complexity, uncertainty, and ambiguity rather than a prompt that clearly identifies a recently demonstrated procedure. Solving such problems may require creativity, exploration, persistence, and learning from mistakes. Quantitative techniques are tools that support understanding and decision-making, not ends in themselves."
