Volunteer labour is often used for planting native seedlings for revegetation projects. The survival of such plantings is seldom monitored and reported. The overall survival of seedlings at three years of age was assessed for eight years of plantings established by nearly 15,000 volunteers in the Lower Cotter River catchment in the Australian Capital Territory. Mean survival was 66.8% across all years. We conclude that volunteers can be effectively integrated into large‐scale revegetation projects if they are well trained and organised.

志愿者种植的天然幼苗的生存：ACT案例研究The Lower Cotter

志愿劳动通常用于为植被恢复项目种植本地幼苗。很少监测和报告这种种植的成活率。由澳大利亚首都领地的下科特河流域的近15,000名志愿者建立了八年的种植，评估了三岁时幼苗的总体存活情况。全年平均生存率为66.8％。我们得出的结论是，如果志愿者受过良好的训练和组织，则可以有效地将其纳入大规模的植被恢复项目。
