ABSTRACT
This paper selects 5 typical cases of ecological citizen science projects and tries to use grounded theory analysis to explore the core quality requirements of ecological citizen science projects on volunteers. The study obtained 56 initial concepts, 12 categories and their corresponding knowledge, skills, physical and mental will and values of 4 main categories. The results of this study can play a role in the assessment of the impact of ecological citizen science projects on the quality of volunteers, and also provide help for the recruitment of volunteers for citizen science projects.
