Salinity at one site on the Bremer River

Page 6: Citizen Science in the NR SAMDB MERI Team...Citizen Science in the NR SAMDB MERI Team ... Wind speed Calm, Light to Moderate, Fregn to Strong, Near gale and stronger Cloud cover: 1/8,

The value…..

• Long-term WQ data

• Federally collated (BOM)

• Independent of Govt monitoring

• Local capacity

• Partnerships

Bird monitoring …..

….is big!

What else….

Page 15: Citizen Science in the NR SAMDB MERI Team...Citizen Science in the NR SAMDB MERI Team ... Wind speed Calm, Light to Moderate, Fregn to Strong, Near gale and stronger Cloud cover: 1/8,

The value….

• Capture all data (not restricted)

• Share with the world

• Add to corporate knowledge

• Bird ID training and ID hotline to expand knowledge and capacity

• Support surveys in target areas as required

• Community see it, share it, value it
