Description
In recent years, awareness of the biodiversity value of urban greenspaces in the Netherlands has grown and neighborhood citizen groups increasingly value the natural beauty and importance for education of their local, often very small, greenspaces. In line with this, since 2019, Taxon Expeditions has organized 'urban expeditions' in 13 greenspaces (and counting) in Amsterdam, the aim of which has been to form teams of both community scientists from the neighborhood and professional biodiversity experts and to carry out high-quality explorations of soil invertebrates of urban greenspaces.
Each 'expedition' entailed training for the community scientists in field methods for biodiversity sampling and techniques for preserving, studying, and identifying soil invertebrates. Each expedition also yielded large numbers of specimens that were worked up into permanent collection specimens, and identified by the participating experts. The results were published in reports and papers, partly authored with the community scientists. We now have a rich baseline of soil invertebrates from these greenspaces, which reveal important ecological patterns. A digitization of the data, carried out by the non-profit Taxon Foundation, will provide a baseline of soil fauna data from these greenspaces. In this project, we aim to carry out a full digitization of identified and curated soil fauna specimens from all expeditions, to serve as a permanent record for Amsterdam. We will involve the community scientists in the digitization projects for their own neighborhoods and so create awareness of the availability and importance of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility for urban nature.

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
The samples were collected by experts and community scientists. Different methods were used, like collecting by hand, leaf litter sieving, using sweeping nets, butterfly nets, beating nets and water nets.
| Etendue de l'étude | The study area consists of greenspaces in Amsterdam. The sampling frequency is once for each greenspace. |
|---|---|
| Contrôle qualité | Species identification was done by experts. |
Description des étapes de la méthode:
- Each location, all urban greenspaces in Amsterdam, was sampled once. This was done with a team of soil invertebrate experts (not the same team of experts for all sampling events) and citizen scientists (people living in Amsterdam or simply interested in participating, usually without any prior knowledge on soil invertebrates). Different methods were used to collect soil invertebrates, like collecting by hand, leaf litter sieving, using sweeping nets, butterfly nets, beating nets and water nets. The greenspace was sampled throughout the day, for some locations multiple days, in different times of the year and with different weather conditions.
