This study uses a multidisciplinary approach to model the habitat use and site occurrence of harbour porpoises, identifying areas where they were seen spending most time in the Skerries and Causeway Special Area of Conservation. The results show that porpoises are most concentrated within 500 m of the shoreline, particularly near headlands with coarse ...

This study evaluates the feasibility of using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to estimate the relative abundance of marine species in Sussex Bay, UK. Although eDNA detected more species than Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV), a significant correlation between eDNA index and BRUV MaxN was found for only one out of fourteen species analyzed ...
