Abstract Biodiversity Discovery refers to a variety of efforts to discover living organisms through public involvement. Examples include Bioblitzes and All Taxa Biodiversity Inventories (ATBIs). A Bioblitz is a field study where NPS and other scientists lead members of the public in an intensive 24-hour (or 48hour) biological inventory to identify and record all species of living organisms in a given area. The term ‘‘Bioblitz’’ was coined by NPS naturalist Susan Rudy while assisting with the first Bioblitz at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens in Washington DC in 1996. Approximately 1,000 species were identified at that event. The first All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory began in Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 1998 and is still ongoing. The effort has engaged hundreds of participants and resulted in the discovery of thousands of species, including many that are new records for the park. In addition to collecting taxonomic data, there appears to be important secondary benefits gained by visitors who have taken part in Biodiversity Discovery activities. A 2009 study found that such participants felt an increased sense of stewardship, a connection to the host park, and a better understanding about the species of concern after their Biodiversity Discovery experience. The information collected will provide NPS managers and planners with a greater understanding of public attitudes, preferences, and behaviors related to stewardship and resource conservation in their National Parks. II. Data OMB Control Number: None. This is a new collection. Title: Creating Stewardship through Biodiversity Discovery in National Parks. Type of Request: New. Affected Public: General public. Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. Frequency of Collection: Annually. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 300. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 150 hours. We expect to receive 300 annual responses. We estimate an average of 30 minutes per response.
