BOB - Behavioural Observations in Beetles

The BOB (acronym for Behavioural Observations in Beetles) App, an initiative by CREA, is dedicated to contributing to the behavioral study of protected insects in Europe. Citizen scientists are invited to observe three particular types of beetles in their surroundings: the stag beetle (Lucanus cervus), the rosalia longicorn (Rosalia alpina) and the funereal longhorn beetle (Morimus asper).

P51 | Citizen Science

P51 is a project by La Ruta del Clima with the objective to gather knowledge from communities about the effects of climate change on different issues such as infrastructure, territorial changes, human rights, loss of species and territority etc.

With the COSEA App, Citizen Scientists can observe marine environments, document coastal habitats or species, and report on pollution, infrastructure and the blue economy. Their contributions on the map and activity in the app will help scientists better understand the impacts and drivers of marine factors to protect and foster a healthy relationship between humans and seas.

TRANSEATION, funded by Horizon Europe, aims to validate a new level of ecosystem-based management by integrating social implication digitalization and nature-based solutions to safeguard and restore marine ecosystem health and services. The project focuses on demonstrating the effectiveness of marine and coastal hybrid blue-grey infrastructures and developing digital tools for monitoring, analysis, and social involvement, addressing societal challenges and promoting sustainable management practices.

EFFECTIVE, a Horizon Europe initiative, targets the emerging threat to the EU's Mediterranean Blue Natural Capital. By leveraging advanced science, technological nature-based solutions, digitalization, and social implication, the project aims to develop a comprehensive scientific knowledge base and practical guidance for the application of Ecosystem-Based Management to promote large-scale marine protected areas establishment in the European seas.

PartiCollect | Citizen Science

PartiCollect is a project by NanoObs and PartiCiTaE that invites Citizen Scientists to take part in mapping fine-particle air pollution in the city by collecting tree bark samples, which are then analyzed for metallic pollutants that are largely linked to car traffic and are known to negatively impact human and plant health.
