ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.

Improving Whole Biodiversity Monitoring and Discovery With Environmental DNA Metagenomics
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metagenomics sequences all DNA molecules present in environmental samples and has the potential of identifying virtually any organism from which they are derived. However, due to unacceptable levels of false positives and negatives, this approach is underexplored as a tool for biodiversity monitoring across the tree of

The ecological forecast limit revisited: Potential, absolute and relative system predictability
Abstract Ecological forecasts are model‐based statements about currently unknown ecosystem states in time or space. For a forecast to be useful to inform decision makers, model validation and verification determine adequacy. The measure of forecast goodness that can be translated into a limit up to which a forecast is acceptable is known as the ...

Abstract This research represents the most extensive characterisation of Roman mosaic tesserae (tiles) from Aquileia, Italy, to date, examining 153 specimens. The study aimed to identify the lithotypes used in mosaics production through a multi‐analytical approach, which included colorimetric analysis, polarised light microscopy and scanning electron ...

We show that the biological assemblage of two lakes in the Hudson Bay Lowlands experienced shifts in their biological assemblages in a very similar period as inferred hydrological change; yet, we also show that both ponds also had a clear anthropogenic warming signal as demonstrated by similar results in a chironomid‐based palaeo‐temperature ...
