作者从两项试图鼓励公众参与英国城市地区空气质量管理过程的研究中，确定了弥合科学与政策鸿沟的经验教训。这些研究涉及探索公众参与技术环境问题的可能性，作为将科学专业知识与公众接受的政策制定联系起来的一种手段。这两项研究的不同之处在于，第一项研究主要是试图利用公民论坛作为官方空气质量模拟和监测程序的一种扩展同行审查形式；第二个是探索新技术，让当地公民表达他们对当地空气污染地理的了解。作者比较了公众咨询或公众参与的基本概念，并总结了公众参与在弥合科学与政策鸿沟的事业中最切实可行和最适当的作用。
The author identifies lessons about bridging the science – policy divide to be learned from two studies of attempts to encourage public participation in the process of local air-quality management in urban areas in England. These studies were concerned with exploring the potential for public engagement with technical environmental matters as a means of connecting scientific expertise with publicly accepted policymaking. The studies differed in that the first was primarily an attempt to use citizen forums as a form of extended peer review for official air-quality modelling and monitoring procedures; the second was an exploration of novel techniques for allowing local citizens to express their knowledge of local geographies of air pollution. The author compares the underlying conceptions of public consultation or participation and draws lessons about the most practicable and appropriate role for public participation in the business of bridging the science – policy divide.
