The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Passive eDNA Sampling as a Promising Tool for Standardizing Wetland Biodiversity Assessments
In lentic ponds, where turbidity often hinders standardized active eDNA filtration, passive eDNA traps can capture multi‐taxon communities comparably to active filtration. Community patterns were broadly similar among three different passive sampling membrane materials, supporting passive eDNA traps as a simple, fast, low‐cost approach for scalable ...
