Share This The FINANCIAL -- Oxford University is working with Canadian researchers on a first-of-its-kind project that will engage citizen volunteers to help advance knowledge about polar bear behaviour in a changing environment by analysing a decade’s worth of images captured by trail cameras. The Arctic Bears Project is being led by Professor Douglas Clark, of the University of Saskatchewan, in collaboration with penguinologist Dr Tom Hart of Oxford’s Department of Zoology. According to Oxford University, launched officially to coincide with International Polar Bear Day on 27 February, the project runs on the Oxford-based Zooniverse.org – the world’s largest online platform for citizen science, with more than two million volunteers worldwide assisting researchers across almost every discipline to annotate and organise data.
