Establishment of a methodological framework and specific procedures for a comprehensive survey, "Hustle and Bustle of Life", of the Lake Biwa coastline by local residents

为了建立方法框架并制定具体程序，由当地居民对比瓦湖海岸线进行现代全面的生物和生态调查，项目组内设立了三个研究小组：“生物的分布和生态”、“生态系统多样性”和“开展和合作公民调查的方法”。收集和回顾了相关文献，并进行了试点项目。因此，澄清了在居民参与性调查之前、期间或之后可能出现的问题，并提出了补救措施。此外，为了推进这项研究，还举办了两个公开讲座项目，并将一些成果用于琵琶湖博物馆的展品中。

In order to establish a methodological framework and develop specific procedures for a modern comprehensive biological and ecological survey of the Lake Biwa coastline by local residents, three research groups were established within the project team: "Distribution and Ecology of Living Creatures", "Ecosystem Diversity", and "Ways to Conduct and Cooperate with Citizen-based Surveys". Relevant literature was gathered and reviewed and pilot programs were conducted. As a result, problematic issues that may arise before, during, or after resident-based participatory surveys were clarified, and remedies were proposed. Furthermore, in order to advance the study, two public lecture programs were held and some results were used in exhibits at the Lake Biwa Museum.
