环境监测经常被批评为不科学、成本过高和浪费。虽然一些监测研究确实存在这些问题，但也有许多非常成功的长期监测计划，为环境政策提供了重要的科学进步和关键信息。在这里，我们讨论有效监测计划的特征，并认为监测应被视为环境科学和政策的基本组成部分。我们敦促制定监测项目的科学家提前规划，以确保高数据质量、可访问性和成本效益，我们敦促政府机构和其他资助机构做出更大承诺，增加环境监测项目资金的数量和长期稳定性。
Environmental monitoring is often criticized as being unscientific, too expensive, and wasteful. While some monitoring studies do suffer from these problems, there are also many highly successful long-term monitoring programs that have provided important scientific advances and crucial information for environmental policy. Here, we discuss the characteristics of effective monitoring programs, and contend that monitoring should be considered a fundamental component of environmental science and policy. We urge scientists who develop monitoring programs to plan in advance to ensure high data quality, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness, and we urge government agencies and other funding institutions to make greater commitments to increasing the amount and long-term stability of funding for environmental monitoring programs.
