projects in the geosciences. Submissions that address citizen science  
planning, marketing, recruiting, retention, web site design, data  
entry, data quality control, coordination and management,  
communication between participants and researchers, and project  
evaluation are encouraged as are those that represent the diversity of  
participants including K-12 school groups, informal science centers,  
individuals, communities, universities, and laboratories.
