Journal Article
Sales, N., Wangensteen Fuentes, O., Carvalho, D., & Mariani, S. (2019). Influence of preservation methods, sample medium and sampling time on eDNA recovery in a neotropical river. Environmental DNA, 1(2), 119-130. https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.14

Environmental DNA (eDNA) has rapidly emerged as a promising biodiversity monitoring technique, proving to be a sensitive and cost‐effective method for species detection. Despite the increasing popularity of eDNA, several questions regarding its limit...

Assessing the minimum sampling effort required to reliably monitor wild meat trade in urban markets (2019)
Journal Article
Mayor, P., Rocha El Bizri, H., Morcatty, T., Moya, K., Solis, S., & Bodmer, R. (2019). Assessing the minimum sampling effort required to reliably monitor wild meat trade in urban markets. Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 7, https://doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2019.180

The trade of wild meat generates great economic returns for local communities but at a cost of increasing harvest rates of game species. Monitoring wild meat trade in urban markets is a low-cost method that can be employed to assess impacts of huntin...

Is automatic detection of hidden knowledge an anomaly? (2019)
Journal Article
Preiss, J. (2019). Is automatic detection of hidden knowledge an anomaly?. BMC Bioinformatics, 20(Sup 10), 251. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12859-019-2815-4

Background: The quantity of documents being published requires researchers to specialize to a narrower field, meaning that inferable connections between publications (particularly from different domains) can be missed. This has given rise to autom... Read More about Is automatic detection of hidden knowledge an anomaly?.
