.@JWSilvertown et al latest paper on @iSpotnature https://t.co/RJVdCQeQ3p

[EdiUni CitSci Crowds @EdUniCSCS]

.@JWSilvertown @iSpotnature managed to create a virtuous circle of new users gaining expertise in identification of observations

[EdiUni CitSci Crowds @EdUniCSCS]

. @JWSilvertown running a long term #citizenscience project raises new questions as it goes along.

[EdiUni CitSci Crowds @EdUniCSCS]

.@iSpotnature cost £1m to kick off. Now has 613k observations. Problem is high drop-off in participation. @JWSilvertown

[EdiUni CitSci Crowds @EdUniCSCS]

.@iSpotnature biodiversity observatory is now 10 years old! @JWSilvertown gives lessons on running citizen science projects and platforms.
