Abstract

Environmental monitoring is an important component of dam removal and watershed restoration. One way to meet the need for environmental monitoring is to involve local communities and organizations through citizen science. Citizen science can help to gather important data about changes in a watershed, while also building and sustaining community engagement in watershed restoration. We have developed a comprehensive Manual to support planning and implementation of citizen science activities in the context of dam removal and watershed restoration. This Quick Guide summarizes the key recommendations found in the main document (found at https://doi.org/10.58076/C6159T). You can use this guide as a starting point, and then delve in further to explore the Manual’s detailed considerations for the different stages of, and types of, citizen science, and to connect with additional resources that can help you plan a project.
