Detecting community change in Arctic marine ecosystems using the temporal dynamics of environmental DNA
Abstract Large‐scale biomonitoring of Arctic coastal marine communities is essential to track temporal changes in ecosystems. Despite the potential of environmental DNA (eDNA) as an innovative coastal biomonitoring tool, important questions remain pertaining to its temporal and spatial variation and...
