Good afternoon Ecologgers, I am in the process of designing community engagement citizen science programming for the Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science in Miami, FL. As part of this initiative, I am considering developing schoolyard bioblitzes to be included in our school outreach portfolio. However, it is essential to the scientific merit of our program that the data collected by students are useful, at least potentially, but preferably in a concrete way.
My question, then, is do any of you use iNaturalist and/or bioblitz data in your research and, if so, could you point me in the direction of published work using these data? Alternatively, are there particular data you’d be interested in collecting in urban terrestrial environments in Miami? Thanks so much, Chelle _______________ Chelle King Frost Science ck...@frostscience.org <mailto:ck...@frostscience.org>
