在保护和公民科学的交叉点进行的研究具有推动这两个领域以及应对保护领域重大挑战的巨大潜力。本特刊重点介绍了二十个研究小组的工作,这些研究小组积极致力于这一交叉点,并研究参与者的动机、学习和行动;评估和改进研究设计和数据质量;并调查保护科学的应用。这些研究的结果直接有助于促进我们对公民科学在保护中所起作用的理解。随着这些领域的研究继续进行,将我们的努力引向交流见解,创建跨学科团队,利用公民科学来解决棘手的问题,并改善公民科学投资之间的协调,这些行动可能会产生最大的影响。我们邀请保护和公民科学工作者为这期特刊文章发起的对话做出贡献。(C)2016爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Research taking place at the intersection of conservation and citizen science holds great potential for advancing both fields as well as for addressing grand challenges in the field of conservation. This Special Issue highlights the work of twenty research groups actively working at this intersection and examining participant motivation, learning and action; evaluating and improving research design and data quality; and investigating conservation science applications. The results of these studies directly contribute to advancing our understanding of the role that citizen science can play in conservation. As research continues in these fields, directing our efforts toward communicating insights, creating interdisciplinary teams that use citizen science to tackle wicked problems, and improving coordination among investments in citizen science are actions likely to have the greatest impact. We invite conservation and citizen science practitioners to contribute to the dialogues initiated by articles in this Special Issue. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
