Description
About this project Help conserve South Carolina's native fishes by joining fellow divers in reporting lionfish sightings or culling. Collectively, our efforts will guide future strategic actions to benefit the health of our reef communities, as well as the fishermen who depend upon them. Project goal To track and remove lionfish from South Carolina's marine habitats. What participants do Document all lionfish sightings and culling activity in South Carolina's marine habitats. Lionfish (Pterois volitans): Although stunningly beautiful, these aggressive non-native predators are of great concern due to their recent rapid colonization of South Carolina's reefs. As indiscriminate consumers of native fish and direct competitors with snapper-grouper species for food, lionfish have the potential to significantly disrupt the overall health and stability of local reefs. So what can we do? The South Carolina Aquarium is leading the way to empower citizens like you to engage with us in meaningful conservation actions. As partners, we can make a bigger positive impact while concurrently generating scientifically valuable data that everyone can access. Our goal with Lionfish Watch is to promote collaborative solutions by tracking and removing lionfish from South Carolina's marine habitats. The benefits are numerous; will you take action with us? HOW TO PARTICIPATE: SAFETY CONCERNS: Lionfish are armed with venemous red and white striped spines and a fearless disposition. Citizen scientists engaging in this project must use appropriate caution and be knowledgable and prepared to treat lionfish stings. If you are stung, immerse the wound in hot water for 30-90 minutes and immediately seek medical attention. Choose any reef that you can safely and legally access. Avoid Marine Protected Areas. Record requested data on sightings and/or culling activity during your dive. Contribute your data using either the SC Aquarium app or the project website.
Enregistrements de données
Les données de cette ressource occurrence ont été publiées sous forme d'une Archive Darwin Core (Darwin Core Archive ou DwC-A), le format standard pour partager des données de biodiversité en tant qu'ensemble d'un ou plusieurs tableurs de données. Le tableur de données du cœur de standard (core) contient 12 enregistrements.
1 tableurs de données d'extension existent également. Un enregistrement d'extension fournit des informations supplémentaires sur un enregistrement du cœur de standard (core). Le nombre d'enregistrements dans chaque tableur de données d'extension est illustré ci-dessous.

Données sur le projet
Anecdata is a free online citizen science platform developed by the Community Lab at the MDI Biological Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine. Anecdata is used by hundreds of individuals and organizations to gather and access citizen science observations and provides a platform to easily collect, manage, and share their citizen science data. How Anecdata works: Project managers create projects, creating datasheets that participants fill out to share their observations. Participants join projects and use the Anecdata website or mobile app to share their observations with the project. Project data is now available for anyone to view and download!
