🐟 monitoring can be non-invasive. 🐟💧 = eDNA + eRNA Check out this comprehensive perspective article on how eNA can improve fisheries monitoring without harming the fish! The aim is to move beyond species detection, from estimating abundance to capturing reproductive status and lots in between.

Doñana is one of Europe's most iconic natural areas, but it lacked a verified, up-to-date, and accessible list of vertebrate species. A recent study indicates that since the early 1900s, a total of 700 vertebrate species have been documented in this natural area: doi.org/10.3897/zook...
