Modeling cetacean eDNA distribution along the Washington coast using metabarcoding from opportunistic samples and generalized additive models

The paper uses eDNA metabarcoding and generalized additive models to model cetacean distribution along the Washington coast, finding spatial patterns consistent with historical records.

Beyond traditional biodiversity fish monitoring: environmental DNA metabarcoding and simultaneous underwater visual census detect different sets of a complex fish community at a marine biodiversity hotspot

The paper compares eDNA metabarcoding and underwater visual census for fish community detection in marine environments, finding they identify different taxa due to differences in detection capabilities and reference database limitations.
