There is a growing acknowledgement that citizen observatories, and other forms of citizen-generated data, have significant role in tracking progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals. This evident increasing number Goals’ indicators for which such data are already being used high-level recognition potential science can play. In this article, we argue networks observatories will help realise potential. Drawing on Cos4Cloud project as an example, highlight how make more interoperable...
Citizen science in marine biodiversity monitoring encounters several challenges such as obtaining unstructured data which may lead to underestimate species presence or introduce spatial bias. In addition those inherent the environment. To address these challenges, efforts must be directed towards (1) enhancing participant engagement increase volume of collected, and (2) developing methods standardize obtained. As December 2024th, over 260.000 observations have been recorded during...
Bioblitzes have been proven a successful approach for biodiversity monitoring with volunteer participation. are intense periods of biological surveying, in the framework friendly competition among all participants, an attempt to record living species within designated area over continuous time period (e.g., usually 24 hours). The use citizen science platforms, which allow sharing photos organisms participants and validating these observations collaborative way, facilitates design bioblitzes...
Abstract Effective citizen engagement is generally accepted as one of the most important steps for success science programs. However, there a lack common theoretical framework recruitment and projects rely on intuition or trial-and-error to develop their strategies. needs participation frameworks concurrent action different roles implement framework. Besides, we must consider various short-term long-term communities involved in project. Furthermore, platforms are evolving towards...
Human activities continue to degrade oceanic, coastal and inland waters. The generational change in the role of society actively looking after health water resources can be achieved through expansion ocean literacy schools. Network European Blue Schools established under EU4Ocean Coalition for Ocean Literacy has improved literacy; however, this needs grow supported. Here, we present ProBleu, a recently funded EU project that will expand support Network, partly use citizen science. core...
