Insects are the most diverse group of animals on Earth, but their small size and high diversity
have always made them challenging to study. Recent technological advances have the …

High‐resolution monitoring is fundamental to understand ecosystems dynamics in an era of
global change and biodiversity declines. While real‐time and automated monitoring of …

Insects are crucial for ecosystem health but climate change and pesticide use are driving
massive insect decline. To mitigate this loss, we need new and effective monitoring …

New technologies for monitoring biodiversity such as environmental (e) DNA, passive
acoustic monitoring, and optical sensors promise to generate automated spatiotemporal …

Insects are the most diverse group of animals on Earth, yet our knowledge of their diversity,
ecology and population trends remains abysmally poor. Four major technological …

DNA metabarcoding is routinely used for biodiversity assessment, in particular targeting
highly diverse groups for which limited taxonomic expertise is available. Various protocols …

Emerging technologies are increasingly employed in environmental citizen science projects.
This integration offers benefits and opportunities for scientists and participants alike. Citizen …

To mitigate ongoing insect biodiversity declines, there is a need for efficient yet accurate
monitoring methods. The use of traditional catch-based survey methods is constrained both …

Ecosystem functions and services are severely threatened by unprecedented global loss in
biodiversity. To counteract these trends, it is essential to develop systems to monitor …

Fauna monitoring often relies on visual monitoring techniques such as camera trapping,
which have biases leading to underestimates of vertebrate species diversity. Environmental …
