A Marine Biodiversity Observation Network for Genetic Monitoring of Hard-Bottom Communities (ARMS-MBON) [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Marine hard-bottom communities are undergoing severe change under the influence of multiple drivers, notably climate change, extraction of natural resources, pollution and eutrophication, habitat degradation, and invasive species.

A Long-Term Ecological Research Data Set From the Marine Genetic Monitoring Program ARMS-MBON 2018-2020. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Molecular methods such as DNA/eDNA metabarcoding have emerged as useful tools to document the biodiversity of complex communities over large spatio‐temporal scales. We established an international Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (ARMS‐MBON) combining standardised sampling using autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) with ...

Advancing Marine Biological Observations and Data Requirements of the Complementary Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs) and Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) Frameworks

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Measurements of the status and trends of key indicators for the ocean and marine life are required to inform policy and management in the context of growing human uses of marine resources, coastal development, and climate change.

Global genetic diversity status and trends: towards a suite of Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) for genetic composition. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc, 2022
ABSTRACT Biodiversity underlies ecosystem resilience, ecosystem function, sustainable economies, and human well‐being. Understanding how biodiversity sustains ecosystems under anthropogenic stressors and global environmental change will require new ways of deriving and applying biodiversity data.

Trophic redundancy and predator size class structure drive differences in kelp forest ecosystem dynamics. [PDF]

Ecology, 2020
Abstract Ecosystems are changing at alarming rates because of climate change and a wide variety of other anthropogenic stressors. These stressors have the potential to cause phase shifts to less productive ecosystems. A major challenge for ecologists is to identify ecosystem attributes that enhance resilience and can buffer systems from shifts to less ...

Assessing eukaryotic biodiversity in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary through environmental DNA metabarcoding. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2019
Spatial and temporal patterns of biodiversity were assessed in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) by preforming environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of two molecular markers (COI and 18S rRNA) from one liter surface water samples collected at three reef sites (Molasses Reef, Looe Key, and Western Sambo) during four 2015 research ...

Evaluation of marine zooplankton community structure through environmental DNA metabarcoding. [PDF]

Limnol Oceanogr Methods, 2018
Abstract Zooplankton dominate the abundance and biomass of multicellular animals in pelagic marine environments; however, traditional methods to characterize zooplankton communities are invasive and laborious. This study compares zooplankton taxonomic composition revealed through metabarcoding of the cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and 18S rRNA genes to ...
