Community-based participatory research initiatives such as “hackAir”, “luftdaten.info”, “senseBox” “CAPTOR”, “CurieuzeNeuzen Vlaanderen”, “communityAQ”, and “Healthy Air, Healthier Children” campaign among many others for mitigating short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) and improving air quality have reported progressive knowledge transfer results. These research initiatives provide the research community with the practical four-element state-of-the-art method for citizen science. For the preparation-, measurements-, data analysis-, and scientific support-elements that collectively present the novel knowledge transfer method, the Luft-Leipzig project results are presented. This research contributes to science by formulating a novel method for SLCP mitigation projects that employ citizen scientists. The Luft-Leipzig project results are presented to validate the four-element state-of-the-art method. The method is recommended for knowledge transfer purposes beyond the scope of mitigating short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) and improving air quality.

“…17,18,26,27 The recent advancements in technologies for gas sensing devices, communication, and data transmission enable the easy monitoring of ozone in the atmosphere. 28 Three important areas of current ozone monitoring advancements are measuring devices, processing models, and assimilating results. 29 At present, sensors measure ozone by sensing the change in electric current, localization of antibodies on sensors, and through optical investigations.…”

“…Only one study was classified as crowdsourcing exclusively, which involved students wearing a radon sensor, that was then sent to a lab for processing by scientists after a period of time (Tsapalov et al, 2020; Figure 5). Another example of crowdsourcing is setting up a weather station that automatically transmitted data to a central location for postprocessing (Ellenburg et al, 2019). The most prevalent level of participation identified was distributed intelligence (56/77 studies) (Figure 5).…”

Citizen science, or the public participation in scientific research, is a mechanism for student engagement, and co-creation of knowledge in the scientific research process. Through participation in citizen science initiatives within school-based learning environments, students can gain field experience, direct project scope, and contribute to broader research objectives while simultaneously achieving learning outcomes and fostering connections to their local communities. To capture the breadth and scope of existing citizen science initiatives applied in Kindergarten-Grade 12 schools, a systematic mapping exercise was undertaken to evaluate common themes related to the type of activities students participated in (i.e., the collection, transcription, categorization, and analysis of data), along with their level of participation in the citizen science initiatives (i.e., crowdsourcing, distributed intelligence, participatory science, and extreme citizen science). Of the 77 manuscripts extracted in the systematic map, nearly all (67/77) involved data collection, and a significant proportion of manuscripts captured a distributed intelligence level of participation (56/77).
