Controls on eDNA movement in streams: Transport, Retention, and Resuspension

Abstract Advances in detection of genetic material from species in aquatic ecosystems, including environmental DNA (eDNA), have improved species monitoring and management. eDNA from target species can readily move in streams and rivers and the goal is to measure it, and with that infer where and how...
