Biomonitoring of fish fauna using environmental DNA methods (eDNA; sampling of shed DNA in water and detection of fish species via molecular techniques) could serve as a complementary technique to conventional, invasive, costly and time-consuming methods. Integration of eDNA metabarcoding (investigating the composition of entire fish communities) into existing regulatory monitoring frameworks, requires further insights and the development of ...
Vietnam is among the countries which discharge most plastic matter into the ocean. Once transported into the sea, especially microplastics (> 0.1 μm, < 5 mm) interact with the fauna including potentially the benthos. For the first time, microplastic pollution in different beach environments in Vietnam will be analysed and their interaction with the associated benthos investigated.
