Citizen science data and biodiversity conservation Policy

The aim of the project is to investigate how opportunistic citizen science data can support biodiversity conservation policy in agriculture in an era of growing environmental concerns and increasing land use intensity. Species distribution models will be used to reduce the simultaneous effects of several biases that occur in opportunistic citizen science data. A combined approach will be proposed to minimize bias and we will use landscape metrics obtained through remote sensing to improve model predictions.
