生态和环境科学研究生学位通常涉及实地考察，通常由研究生指导。几乎没有正式的资源来支持研究生成功地计划和实施数据收集实地活动，即使这种经验可能是完成研究生学位的基础。毕业生现场工作需要领导和管理团队，通常在特殊情况下(包括长时间、偏远地区等)，因此即使对那些具有以前的领导或现场经验的人来说也可能是具有挑战性的。我们的目标是(1)为研究生收集关于安全和有效地领导实地考察的一般性建议，(2)征求关于资源和在实地考察季节之前、期间和之后采取的行动的具体建议，以及(3)为实验室、系和大学制定一系列建议，以更好地为他们的学生做好准备和支持。我们开发了一项调查，以征求社区意见，并通过电子邮件、列表服务器和社交媒体将其广泛分发给生态科学社区。在这里，我们展示了调查结果，包括研究生在领导自己的实地工作时所面临的感知挑战的摘要，如何准备和成功完成实地工作的建议，以及资源的汇编。通过在野外赛季之前、期间和之后实施清晰的沟通、风险评估和程序规划，研究生现场领导可以提高成功。实验室、主要研究人员、部门和专业协会可以通过正规化机构资源、财政支持和激励技能发展来支持研究生领域领导者。实地领导能力是研究生教育中需要培养的一项关键技能，有助于自然科学研究人员的成功、留住和进步。
Ecology and environmental science graduate degrees often involve fieldwork, frequently led by the graduate student. Few formal resources exist to support graduate students in successfully planning and implementing a data collection field campaign, even though this experience may be fundamental to completing a graduate degree. Graduate fieldwork requires leading and managing a team, often in unique circumstances (including long hours, remote regions, etc.), and therefore can be challenging even for those with previous leadership or field experience. Our objectives were to (1) collect general advice for graduate students on leading fieldwork safely and effectively, (2) solicit specific suggestions on resources and actions to take before, during, and after the field season, and (3) develop a series of recommendations for labs, departments, and universities to better prepare and support their students. We developed a survey to solicit community input and distributed it widely to the ecological sciences community via email LISTSERVs and social media. Here, we present results from the survey responses, including a summary of the perceived challenges that graduate students face while leading their own fieldwork, suggestions for how to prepare and complete fieldwork successfully, and a compilation of resources. Graduate field leaders can improve success via clear communication, risk assessment and procedural planning implemented before, during, and after the field season. Labs, principal investigators, departments, and professional societies can support graduate field leaders by formalizing institutional resources, financial support, and incentivizing skill development. Field leadership is a critical skill to develop during graduate education, and contributes to the success, retention, and advancement of researchers in the natural sciences.
