I am Miss ASSOUMANE AYOUBA Salaha, a third-year doctoral student at the National Polytechnic Institute Félix HOUPHOUET BOIGNY in Yamoussoukro, Cote d’Ivoire. I am working on the theme of assessing the impact of gold mining on ecosystem services in a sub-prefecture (Kokumbo) in the central region of the country. I am using the software InVEST for part of my research work. Thank you very much for this very informative forum platform.
