Monitoring population extinction risk with community science data

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 9, Page 2133-2147, September 2025.
Our modelling framework provides a robust, computationally efficient and easy‐to‐apply tool for monitoring local persistence probability that can support global conservation efforts. This will complement the monitoring of species population viability in places where standardized monitoring is still lacking, but community science observations are common.
