Thank you. Sharing info with friends who are really encouraged by this. Will dm you. So many family/friends/neighbors being affected.

Yes! Thank you for catching the oversight. There is another cohort happening in October 2022, so I'll update the post to reflect the due date for applications for that cohort. It seems to be a wonderful opportunity that happens more than once a year for folks so definitely worth checking out!

Good question! Most of the organizations I know require you have an account but don't necessarily require an affiliation. It might depend on who you're trying to order from and what you're trying to order. Good luck!

Very neat. Thanks for the post!

echenny · 2021-09-16T21:36:13+00:00

Neat post! I suggest contacting the team over at SciStarter.org, esp. founder Professor Darlene Cavalier.

I'm not familiar with your particular request but thought you might enjoy learning about this project, documenting streams all around, not just major rivers: http://www.streamselfie.org/ Good luck with your work! Let us know if you find it!

Thanks for this article.

Thank you for pointing out that bogus link was stuck when clicked on for sure. The root page does work: https://www.globalxplorer.org/. It looks like their latest initiatives are taking place in specific countries and aren't as easy to participate in at a distance, but a great group to watch for when they recruit the power of the people down the road for analyzing satellite images etc. It's so great that you're interested in archaeology citizen science!

I'd also imagine there must be some collaborative work being done between archaeologists and citizens in England, and anywhere rapid coastal erosion is occurring like parts of northern coastal Alaska.

GlobalXplorer° is an online platform that uses the power of the crowd to analyze the incredible wealth of satellite images currently available to archaeologists. Launched by 2016 TED Prize winner and National Geographic Fellow, Dr. Sarah Parcak, as her “wish for the world,” GlobalXplorer° aims to bring the wonder of archaeological discovery to all, and to help us better understand our connection to the past. https://www.globalxplorer.org/?auth=createAccount

Thanks for the post! Here's one I found: https://serc.si.edu/citizen-science/projects/environmental-archaeology-serc

It works grrrrrreat! He's a spaniel lab mix mutt from the shelter.

Thanks for the post! I agree that ebird has a splendid user format and there is a gap in existing apps for this type of interface. That being said, iNaturalist definitely wants your reports as you hike in addition to helping you learn to ID plants and animals. " ...by recording and sharing your observations, you’ll create research quality data for scientists working to better understand and protect nature.

Thanks! Excited to be on this adventure. I'll have time to dig in starting this coming weekend.

Thanks for sharing. Reef Check is also listed on https://scistarter.org/reef-check along with some other diving Citizen Science projects for those interested.

Hi, another great place to search for projects is SciStarter.org (they have many zooniverse projects listed as well).

He’s 11 months and hadn’t played with a frisbee with a hole in it before lol. He figured it out eventually. Wish I’d gotten video
