    • Biodiversity along the Russian River

      Biodiversity along the Russian River

      The Russian River watershed, located along the North Coast Hydrologic Region of California, contains nearly 3,900 km2 of forests, agricultural lands and urban lands in Mendocino and Sonoma Counties. The mainstem of the Russian River flows 110 miles from...
    • Biomelogs

      After a mixed coniferous forest experiences a high intensity fire such as in the CZU Lightning Complex Fire, there are a number of adverse impacts including loss of ecosystem resilience, flooding, debris flow, soil hydrophobicity, release of carbon dioxide...

    Interesting organisms

    Clupea pallasii

    Clupea pallasii

    Species

    Pacific herring are schooling forage fish that support coastal food webs across the North Pacific. Their spawning runs make them a frequent signal in marine and estuarine eDNA projects.
    Oncorhynchus tshawytscha

    Oncorhynchus tshawytscha

    Species

    Chinook salmon are the largest Pacific salmon and an important species for river, estuary, and coastal monitoring. Their eDNA can reveal habitat use across freshwater and marine life stages.
    Castor canadensis

    Castor canadensis

    Species

    The North American beaver is a keystone wetland engineer whose dams change hydrology, sediment, and habitat structure. Its eDNA signal is useful in restoration and watershed monitoring.
    Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis

    Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis

    Species

    Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, often called Bd, is the amphibian chytrid fungus associated with chytridiomycosis. eDNA observations can help screen aquatic habitats for this pathogen.
    Oncorhynchus

    Oncorhynchus

    Genus

    Oncorhynchus includes Pacific salmon and trout, a group central to coldwater ecosystem monitoring. Genus-level detections can capture salmonid signals when species-level assignment is uncertain.
    Myocastor coypus

    Myocastor coypus

    Species

    The coypu, also known as nutria, is a semiaquatic rodent that can reshape marshes and waterways through grazing and burrowing. Its detections are relevant for invasive species surveillance.
    Sylvilagus bachmani

    Sylvilagus bachmani

    Species

    The brush rabbit is a western North American cottontail associated with dense shrubs and coastal scrub. eDNA detections can complement field observations in fragmented habitats.
