NCEA eDNA Soil Biodiversity
Soil biodiversity underpins essential ecosystem functions and reflects woodland condition yet is difficult to monitor using traditional methods. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding offers a scalable, non-invasive approach to assess fungi and invertebrates. Integrated into the National Forest Inventory, it will generate baseline data to track biodiversity patterns and woodland condition...

NCEA DNA Woodland Canopy
Woodland canopy arthropods are sensitive indicators of ecological condition but are difficult to sample and identify at scale using traditional methods. DNA metabarcoding offers a cost‑effective alternative, enabling comprehensive biodiversity assessment. Integrated into the National Forest Inventory, it will generate baseline data to track spatial and temporal trends in arthropod...

NCEA eDNA Woodland Mammals
This research project aimed to integrate eDNA metabarcoding into the National Forest Inventory survey to assess ecological condition through monitoring of woodland mammals. eDNA offers a non‑invasive, scalable alternative to traditional surveys by detecting species from environmental traces, providing an efficient, cost‑effective way to capture mammal diversity across woodland ecosystems....
