Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research and Management
In a unique Europe-wide approach, students and other citizen scientists in Styria (Austria) were involved in researching and documenting the phenological development of invasive plant species under the influence of climate change. Supported by experts, they tested modern field research instruments and educational tools, laying the foundation for a long-term, nationwide Citizen Science network. The observations could be used to help make the management of invasive plant species more efficient and to raise awareness about their effects.
Keywords: citizen science, invasive plant species, phenology, climate change
