@kirstenjharper.bsky.socialGreat talk by Erika Neave on DNA divers. - low-cost, #citsci passive #eDNA sampling using #metaprobe attached to divers. #eDNA boosted species records for 2 rocky reefs + revealed ecological signals. Anyone in Vancouver 🇨🇦 looking for a fab #postdoc or research tech, Erika is available! #UKDNAWG26
Show Post@jlittlefair.bsky.social presents initial results of MSc project on vertical distribution of airborne #eDNA. Strong potential to better understand biodiversity across tree of life but improvements to sensor and further investigations needed #UKDNAWG26
Show Post🧬 My haplotype paper is out! We show that deviations between within-sample and population-level haplotype frequencies can be used to estimate how many individuals contributed to an eDNA sample. No tissue references needed, just metabarcoding data and some population genetics. #eDNA #PopGen
Show PostThe {eDNAjoint} R package provides an interface for fitting a ‘joint’ model that integrates data from paired or semi-paired environmental DNA (eDNA) and traditional surveys in a Bayesian framework. eDNA = environmental DNA
