DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4809
Abstract: Abstract Terrestrial arthropods comprise the most species‐rich communities on Earth, and grassland flowers provide resources for hundreds of thousands of arthropod species. Diverse grassland ecosystems worldwide are threatened by various types of environmental change, which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9672
Abstract: Abstract The bathymetric and geographical distribution of marine species represent a key information in biodiversity conservation. Yet, deep‐sea ecosystems are among the least explored on Earth and are increasingly impacted by human activities. Environmental DNA… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9785
Abstract: Abstract Knowledge about population genetic data is important for effective conservation management. Genetic research traditionally requires sampling directly from the organism, for example tissue, which can be challenging, time‐consuming, and harmful to the animal. Environmental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9800
Abstract: Aim Despite significant population declines and targeted EU regulations aimed at A. anguilla conservation, little attention has been given to their status at their easternmost range. This study applies wide scale integrated monitoring to uncover… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-021-03896-x
Abstract: Population outbreaks of the corallivorous crown-of-thorns seastar (CoTS; Acanthaster spp.) are significant threats to the Indo-Pacific reefs. Although recent research demonstrated that environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques could improve CoTS monitoring, the interpretation of surveillance results… read more here.
