Radiotelemetry reveals effects of upstream biomass and UV exposure on environmental DNA occupancy and detection for a large freshwater turtle

Abstract Background Imperfect detection of hard‐to‐sample organisms has motivated the development of novel monitoring techniques. Environmental DNA (eDNA) can provide a sensitive, relatively low‐cost sampling method in aquatic systems, but biotic and abiotic factors can affect its reliability. Aims...
