Quantitative Problem Solving in Natural Resources / Some Teaser Problems
"The teaser problems concern questions such as wetland configuration, herbicide requirements, deer collisions, prairie dog plague, forest fire losses, phosphorus discharge, and brook trout abundance. None is initially stated as a conventional mathematics exercise, yet quantitative methods can help address each one. Before calculation begins, the problem must be interpreted, information must be gathered, and the desired output must be defined."
