The study compared trawl and eDNA metabarcoding of demersal fish communities in an open ocean environment around the Faroe Islands. eDNA provided a comparable assessment of demersal species biomass and revealed additional spatial information on keystone species known to be under‐sampled by demersal trawls due to size and behavioral traits.

Development of eNA Sampling for Early Detection of Pathogens in On‐Farm Water Sources
We compare four water‐sampling methods for detecting microbial and viral eNA in livestock troughs and show all approaches effectively recover community profiles, supporting flexible, field‐ready surveillance of livestock pathogens. ABSTRACT Early detection of livestock pathogens is critical for mitigating risk and implementing timely control or ...

Contaminant‐Driven Modulation of Environmental DNA and RNA in Aquatic Systems
This study investigates how lead (Pb) and polyethylene (PE) microbreads influence eDNA and eRNA signals in salmon and eels. While Pb exposure does not interfere with eNA signals, PE microbeads increase eRNA production and slow molecular degradation, prolonging the detection window of eNA in aquatic ecosystems.

Through progressive flume experiments, this study demonstrated that increased bed shear stresses corresponded with increased cohesive fine sediment (<62‐μm) remobilisation depths from a representative chalk stream gravel bed. This represents some of the first scientifically robust data, which can direct revised and targeted fine sediment management in ...

Balancing Harvest and Habitat: A Framework for the Sustainable Management of Diadromous Galaxiids
Managing New Zealand's diadromous Galaxias species and the associated whitebait fishery presents a complex challenge due to species‐specific differences in life‐history strategies, habitat requirements, and population dynamics that underpin responses to anthropogenic and environmental pressures.

Commentary: Trends and Tensions in Freshwater and Fisheries Management in Central Otago, New Zealand
Recent resource management planning processes and decisions in Central Otago, New Zealand, illustrate changes in policy direction for freshwater management. These processes and decisions also highlight interactions between, and values associated with, indigenous and introduced sports fish.
