Once in a while it is nice to be able to export figures out of Microsoft Excel for publication in a scientific journal. The problem is that Excel doesn't support high enough resolution DPI to meet most journal requirements. Yes, R is a solution that give you total control over your own graphics.

Most of my work is in the field of Landscape Ecology, so there is a focus on ecological applications. Postings include tips and suggestions for data processing and day-to-day GIS tasks, links to my GIS tools and approaches, and links to scientific papers that I've been involved in.
