Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping
Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.

Effect of microplastics on the transport of extracellular DNA in an agricultural soil [PDF]
The transport of eDNA is one of the key environmental behaviors for its spreading and dispersal. Microplastics (MPs) are widely present in the soil environment and directly affect the environmental behavior of co-coexisting soil pollutants.

Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...

ABSTRACT Displacing people to make way for development projects is contentious. Empirical research demonstrates that neither human rights guidelines nor multilateral lenders' standards guarantee positive, sustainable outcomes for displaced people. With multiple new displacing projects proposed globally, including for renewable energy, we propose a new ...

Minimal impact of spotted hyenas on livestock and endangered species in a prey‐rich ecosystem
The diet of large carnivores is of great interest to conservation managers, as it can reveal the extent of human–carnivore conflict and the impact of carnivores on species of high conservation priority. Metabarcoding of environmental DNA can identify species and is often more reliable than observational or morphological methods, particularly when it ...
