環境監測在經營決策上占有重要的部位，而長期的監測需要在地社區的投入，才能使監測計畫長久續存並有效地反應在經營管理決策上。本研究選擇華江溼地守護聯盟與相關專家合作進行之環境監測志工培訓案例，自2009年6月至2010年6月，以志工自評方式探討以「自然探索」教育為主體之「福山培訓」是否有助於增進志工之監測能力，以及經由「做中學」為主體之「生態監測」志工培訓過程，籍著志工實地參與經驗的累積，是否有助於增進志工之監測能力。研究結果發現，福山培訓活動能夠提高志工對監視方法的瞭解程度，且有助提高志工參與監測之意願。志工參與監測之經驗與其監測能力軍正向關係，為影響志工監測能力的主要貢獻因子，且4-6次以上的參與經驗，足以顯著提升志工個人的監測能力。根據此一結果，我們建議未來全面性推動社區參與濕地監測，社區生態監視之志工培訓課程應加強志工實際操作經驗的累積，並結合自然探索教育循序漸進地為社區志工培養其長期監測的知能與參與監測服務的意願，讓社區、管理單位和科學系統結合，達成濕地經營管理之共識與有效落實。

Environmental monitoring plays an important role in management decision-making To have effective long-term environmental monitoring, continual participatory support of local communities is required. Since 2008, the Huanchiang Wetland Guardian Alliance has used Fu-Shan nature-based and "learning by doing" experience-based programs to train monitoring volunteers. This article looks at a self-assessment survey used to examine whether the two training methods promoted the volunteers' awareness of local wetland ecology and scientific monitoring ability. Results show that the Fu-Shan group has made significant improvement in the motivation of participation and the understanding of monitoring skills. However, participation of monitoring activities was the main factor affecting monitoring ability. Volunteers had higher participatory rates in the monitoring activities evidently showed improvement in monitoring ability and awareness. To promote community participation in wetland monitoring in the future, it is important to provide a practical volunteer training programs. Training programs can also subsume nature-based education courses to enhance motivation and ecological knowledge of participants. The implementation management of wetland conservation will be more effective when the communities, the government, and the scientific units cooperate harmoniously.
