GIO Releases New White Paper: “A Descriptive Analysis of GLOBE Data Collection Prior to and During the COVID-19 Pandemic”
The GLOBE Implementation Office (GIO) has released a new “White Paper” entitled, “A Descriptive Analysis of GLOBE Data Collection Prior to and During the COVID-19 Pandemic” (written by Ksenia Lepikhina and Assistant GIO Director Dr. Denise Yost). The paper takes a global perspective on data entry over the past several years, including during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and related public-health restrictions, affected the entire world and many activities; GLOBE community and student and citizen science data entry efforts were no exception. In the paper, GIO examined data entry trends over the last four years across all six GLOBE regions in order to identify baseline patterns and examine possible influences of COVID-19 restrictions. The paper summarizes and provides a broad, descriptive analysis of GLOBE data submissions based on data entry types, GLOBE regions, and selected protocols over time.
