Globally unified analysis of riverine eDNA reveals common associations of fish biodiversity with drainage characteristics

Yan Zhang, Heng Zhang, Hiroshi D. Akashi, Camille P. Albouy, Kara J. Andres, José Barquín, Jeanine Brantschen, Richard E. Connon, Joseph M. Craine, Deirdre Bridget Gleeson, Alejandra Goldenberg‐Vilar, Alexia María González-Ferreras, Chelsea I. Hatzenbuhler, Kamil Hupało, Josephine Hyde, , Florian Altermatt

This study uses global eDNA data to show how riverine fish biodiversity relates to drainage characteristics, revealing climate and human activity effects vary by biodiversity facet and catchment size.
