Decoding the Ocean - UNESCO eDNA Expeditions Unveil Ocean Biodiversity
UNESCO launches an ambitious global citizen science project to assess the diversity of fish and endangered species at marine World Heritage sites. Environmental DNA analyses across a selection of these sites will also provide information to enable global analyses on the vulnerability of flagship marine protected areas to climate change. The project called: "eDNA expeditions in marine World Heritage Sites" is also endorsed as a project of the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.
