Abstract: Ecosystemâlevel processes are increasingly used by researchers and managers as indicators of ecological integrity for bioassessment, particularly in streams. However, processes like litter breakdown integrate multiple mechanistic pathways, which can vary differentially even under natural,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/mf17250
Abstract: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques are revolutionising the bioassessment of ecosystems. Herein we use a case study to compare environmental (e)DNA and classical sampling and laboratory identification approaches to assess biotic communities in streams. Both techniques… read more here.
