Dear colleagues, On 30 April 2019, you received the link to a survey asking for your opinion regarding the problem of biases in ecological research. Unfortunately, the response rate to our survey was low; therefore, we face difficulties in interpretation of the obtained results. This message is specifically addressed to scientists who did not participate in our survey. Please consider answering two quick questions (at https://link.webropolsurveys.com/S/84EE55EE9D998FBB) to help us to understand your attitude to the problem. This will only take one minute of your valuable time. If you have completed and submitted your response to our survey – thank you very much, and please ignore this message. Thank you for your contribution, and best regards, Mikhail ----------------------------------------------------- Mikhail V. Kozlov, Ph.D., Adj.
