Investigating the Efficiency of Environmental DNA (eDNA) for Detecting Terrestrial and Semi-aquatic Mammals (2024)
Thesis
Broadhurst, H. (2024). Investigating the Efficiency of Environmental DNA (eDNA) for Detecting Terrestrial and Semi-aquatic Mammals. (Thesis). University of Salford

The global decline of terrestrial and semi-aquatic mammals creates an urgent need for accurate information on species distributions for effective conservation efforts. Environmental DNA (eDNA) has emerged as a reliable, non-invasive, and novel approa...

Mapping differences in mammalian distributions and diversity using environmental DNA from rivers (2021)
Journal Article
Broadhurst, H., Gregory, L., Bleakley, E., Perkins, J., Lavin, J., Bolton, P., …McDevitt, A. (2021). Mapping differences in mammalian distributions and diversity using environmental DNA from rivers. Science of the Total Environment, 801, 149724. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.149724

Finding more efficient ways to monitor and estimate the diversity of mammalian communities is a major step towards their management and conservation. Environmental DNA (eDNA) from river water has recently been shown to be a viable method for biomonit...
