Abstract Regular monitoring of diadromous fishes is critical to inform their management and conservation. Yet, the in-situ data collection these species challenging due complex life cycle low abundance. Focusing on sea lamprey ( Petromyzon marinus , Petromyzontidae) European shads Alosa alosa A. fallax Clupeidae), emblematic in Northeast Atlantic region, this study leverages use water environmental DNA (eDNA) samples monitor distribution range. For that aim, we developed quantitative PCR (qPCR) digital (dPCR) assays applied them detect shad a network 44 river basins across Spain, France, Ireland, UK. We found qPCR efficiently detected presence/absence shads, while higher sensitivity dPCR was essential for detecting lower abundant partly sessile behaving amount collected. Moreover, showed significantly eDNA copies per litre compared probably larvae spending several years burrowed within soft sediments, reducing shedding into column. The integration historical datasets with snapshot wide-ranging enhances our understanding rivers. Importantly, lessons learned international collaboration are towards prevailing framework conservation migratory fishes, highlighting need well-designed sampling strategies coupled species-specific bust long-term efforts species.

With the far-reaching consequences of worldwide climate variationon ecosystems and human societies, understanding predicting changes in cultural ecosystem services (CES) is essential for sustainable development policy resource planning. Past studies have focused on impacts natural ecosystems, while relatively few been conducted predictions CES. This study combines POI datasets with future variables under different scenarios into Maxent model forecasting spatial temporal distribution CES, which provides strong support decision-making. The results indicate that: (1) Under SSP126 SSP585 scenarios, CES values northern, western, central, northeastern parts area are high, those southwestern, southern, southeastern low. (2) scenario, total shows an increasing trend from 2021 to 2040, but slightly declines 2061 2080. In contrast, significantly decreases especially provinces Guizhou, Hunan, Zhejiang, Anhui. (3) Temperature has a significant impact predictions, annual mean temperature (Bio1) positively correlated contributing between 0.75 0.78 across years scenarios. Additionally, maximum hottest month (Bio5) wettest quarter (Bio8) also influence years. These findings reveal regional characteristics variations providing crucial scientific evidence policy-making, management, adaptation strategies. They offer important insights global change society, serving as valuable reference national
