Community science supports research on protected area resilience

[...]literature reviews based on broad search terms, such as the general terms used by Binley et al. ( 2021) as well as six more context-dependent terms (“wildlife refuge”; “state park”; “national park”; “provincial park”; “beach”; “conservation area”), and adding terms indicating the application of community science (Box 1). Because Google Scholar indexes articles' full text, we expected it to capture a broader set of relevant articles; this is because when a review topic is defined by several distinct search terms, it is likely that some terms will not appear in all relevant articles' titles or abstracts despite their presence in the article text (Bramer et al., 2017). The search string used to query Google Scholar (“[protected area synonym*]”) AND (“citizen science” OR “community science” OR “citizen scientists”) AND (ecology OR ecological OR conservation OR stewardship) AND (planning OR optimization OR design OR prioritization) AND (resilience OR resilient) *These ten synonymous search terms were used one a time to represent the concept of “protected areas” in ten iterative searches: “Protected area”; “Reserve”; “Park”; “Preserve”; “Wildlife refuge”; “State park”; “National park”; “Provincial park”; “Beach”; “Conservation area”.
