The KKL-JNF (Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael – Jewish National Fund) Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) network was established approximately 30 years ago, beginning with its first research site, Park Shaked. The network's goal was to develop methods for managing dryland ecosystems and to study management interventions in arid regions under changing climate conditions. Over the years, the network has expanded, adding additional long-term research sites across diverse ecosystems managed by KKL, including forests and various types of open lands.

Climate change is affecting the ecosystems and the services they provide for human well-being. For a better understanding of the causes and effects of this change in the functioning of ecosystems, detailed information of environmental parameters needs to be considered. Researchers generate multiple databases in their academic disciplines but often this data collection is not openly available nor does it fulfill the FAIR principles of Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (Wilkinson et al. 2016).

This choice has potential trade-offs related to spatial scale, observer variance, and inter-annual variability. Here we explored this issue with phenology by comparing models built using data from the large-scale, citizen

Abstract:
Climate change is affecting the ecosystems and the services they provide for human well-being. For a better understanding of the causes and effects of this change in the functioning of ecosystems, detailed information of environmental parameters needs to be considered. Researchers generate multiple databases in their academic disciplines but often this data collection is not openly available nor does it fulfill the FAIR principles of Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (Wilkinson et al. 2016). In this regard, Long-Term Ecosystem Research (LTER) plays an important role

The collection of biodiversity data is possible by non-professionals and this is part of a not-canonical and interdisciplinary approach on scientific research called “citizen science”. One of the most important factors which accelerated the development of citizen science in the last decade has been the use of mobile devices which incorporate sensors. The smartphone is one of these devices for the possibility of catching pictures and register a number of information (mainly date, hour, geographic position).
