Great presentation by @coreytcallaghan.bsky.social on our work evaluating the use of @inaturalist.bsky.social data on the literature. Read it here doi.org/10.1093/bios... #LivingData2025
This new paper documents a tenfold increase in research papers using community-collected iNaturalist data over just five years: tr.ee/89Ot3I

According to the study, here are four key ways that iNaturalist data directly powers science 🧵⤵️
Our new paper in BioScience shows how iNaturalist data is powering research across the globe, with use growing 10x in 5 years and spanning 128 countries & 638 families of life.

@coreytcallaghan.bsky.social, and his collaborators synthesized studies on the impact of urban green space on insect diversity. Results are instructive for urban planning. E.g. green roofs should not replace green park space because they do not support as high diversity. 🧪🌎
