The ongoing degradation of natural systems and other environmental changes has put our
society at a crossroad with respect to our future relationship with our planet. While the …

Genomic data are becoming increasingly affordable and easy to collect, and new tools for
their analysis are appearing rapidly. Conservation biologists are interested in using this …

The field of environmental DNA (eDNA) is advancing rapidly, yet human eDNA applications
remain underutilized and underconsidered. Broader adoption of eDNA analysis will produce …

Estuaries provide critical ecosystem services, and yet are increasingly under threat from
urbanization. Non-invasive approaches to monitor biodiversity resident to or migrating …

Global biodiversity is declining at an ever-increasing rate. Yet effective policies to mitigate or

Environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling is a relatively new technique that has been employed
in biodiversity surveys around the world. Environmental DNA can be an effective, non …

In recent decades, the integration of horses (Equus ferus) in European rewilding initiatives
has gained widespread popularity due to their potential for regulating vegetation and …

The information contained in population genomic data can tell us much about the past
ecology and evolution of species. We leveraged detailed phenotypic and genomic data of …

Urbanization of estuaries drastically changed existing shorelines and bathymetric contours,
in turn modifying habitat for marine foundational species that host critical biodiversity. And …

While the air microbiome and its diversity are essential for human health and ecosystem
resilience, comprehensive air microbial diversity monitoring has remained rare, so that little …
