Advances in Science and the benefits of eRNA data for Early Warning Systems and Monitoring
Invasive species pose a threat to aquatic ecologies and water infrastructure, yet the current methodologies for monitoring and mitigation too often fall short of sustainability. Recent advances in early detection and monitoring using advanced eDNA technology, in conjunction with groundbreaking eRNA technology, provide sustainable low impact solutions to legacy methodologies. With the combination of advanced eDNA, eRNA, and emerging treatment strategies providing low to no impact mitigation, effective ecosystem management is now possible.
