Optimization of environmental DNA extraction and amplification methods for metabarcoding of deep-sea fish

open access: yesMethodsX, 2021
Analyses of environmental DNA (eDNA) from macroorganisms in aquatic environments have greatly advanced in recent years. In particular, eDNA metabarcoding of fish using universal PCR primers has been reported in various waters.

Mangrove Biodiversity Assessment Using UAV Lidar and Hyperspectral Data in China's Pinglu Canal Estuary

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Mangrove forests are a valuable resource for biological and species diversity, and play a critical role in maintaining biodiversity. However, traditional plant biodiversity survey methods, which rely on labor-intensive field surveys, are not suitable for

Geodiversity inclusiveness in biodiversity assessment

open access: yesProgress in Physical Geography: Earth and Environment, 2022
Biodiversity assessment is constitutive in establishing conservation priorities and outcomes, and geodiversity complements species richness as a surrogate in the absence of species data, improves statistical modelling and can facilitate prediction of ...

Unearthing the Potential of Soil eDNA Metabarcoding—Towards Best Practice Advice for Invertebrate Biodiversity Assessment

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Metabarcoding has proven to be a powerful tool to assess ecological patterns and diversity from different habitats. Terrestrial invertebrate diversity is frequently based on bulk samples, which require comparatively high sampling effort.

Using Red List Indices to monitor extinction risk at national scales

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2023
The Red List Index (RLI) measures change in the aggregate extinction risk of species. It is a key indicator for tracking progress toward nine of the Aichi and many proposed post‐2020 Global Biodiversity Framework Targets.
