網民參與科學 Citizen Science

「網民參與科學網」中央研究院天文及天文物理研究所推動成立
成立宗旨：

成千上萬的網路公民註冊參與「某某某」，這是令人興奮卻一點也不意外的現象，在國外，這類型的數位網路公民參與科學現今幾乎成了常見的科學活動。

最早受到歡迎的是1999年加州大學柏克萊分校的SETI@Home計畫，該計畫藉由志願者的電腦，過濾電波望遠鏡資料，搜尋外星人的訊號。

之後出現宇宙動物園計畫，是要開發人類圖形辨識能力來協助開學家的研究。令人感到鼓舞地，大約有一萬多個星系動物園(宇宙動物園計畫之一)志願者的主要動機就是要對科學研究有所貢獻。

這證明一般大眾內心存有協助科學研究的潛在慾望，並且一般大眾對這樣計畫的回想也的確是相當大，根據他們估計光是餐與星系動物園二版的總人力就相當是單一一位工作者一百多年以上的工作量。

另外還有一種日益增加的參與科學研究方式是一般大眾在大自然中收集資料，農委會的特有生物研究保育中心所主導的多項網民科學計畫，例如臺灣繁殖鳥類大調查，我們

稱這些志願者為網路公民科學家。

網路公民科學家所得到的回報不僅只是參與科學研究，並且可以獲得科學知識和方法，這就是本計畫的目標：
① 介紹現有網民科學
② 告訴一般大眾如何參予網民科學計畫
③ 並從中學習相關的科學內容
④ 以及開發出新的本土網民科學

May 25, 2022 A few months ago, someone from the Raspberry Shake team got in touch, and asked if I'd like to try out a Shake at my home. As someone who has spent a bit too much time nerding out over space and atmospheric weather, but never touched seismology, I decided it was time to dig deep and lea...
