Citizen science involves professional scientists and everyday people engaged in activities such as biological inventories, long-term monitoring and scientific research. The goals of citizen science projects are to generate meaningful, useful data that contributes to scientific understanding of a species. That understanding can then be applied to managing species and resources at the park level. 6, record 1, English, - citizen%20science

La science citoyenne fait intervenir des scientifiques professionnels ainsi que des gens «ordinaires», qui prennent part à des activités tels que des inventaires biologiques, de la surveillance à long terme et de la recherche scientifique. Les initiatives de science citoyenne ont pour but de produire des données importantes et utiles qui aideront à la compréhension scientifique d'une espèce donnée. Ces apprentissages pourront ensuite servir à la gestion des espèces et des ressources du parc. 4, record 1, French, - science%20participative
