Historic Overexploitation, Genetic Erosion and Local extinction: Palaeogenomic Insights into the Decline of Eubalaena glacialis in the Northeast Atlantic

Gonçalo Espregueira Themudo, Alba Rey‐Iglesia, Inês M. dos Santos…·Paula F. Campos

This study uses ancient DNA to show that the Northeast Atlantic right whale population was historically panmictic but declined sharply in genetic diversity due to whaling, leading to its functional extinction.

Environmental DNA as a complementary tool for biodiversity monitoring: A multi-technique and multi-trophic approach to investigate cetacean distribution and feeding ecology

Luís Afonso, Joana Costa, Ana Mafalda Correia…·Catarina Magalhães

This study uses environmental DNA to characterize cetacean communities and their prey in coastal waters, finding similar results to visual surveys and identifying year-round presence.
