Review of monitoring biodiversity effectively at differing scales

This report aims to provide guidance for developing coordinated, multi-scale biodiversity monitoring, based on approaches that have been undertaken previously. The report begins by highlighting the challenges that such a programme would face, then explores guidance that could be followed to overcome such challenges, and finally provides advice for several cases in which the guidance may be relevant. It is based on a time-restricted review of the scientific literature, and so does not intend to be comprehensive or systematic.
