Abstract High‐resolution monitoring is fundamental to understand ecosystems dynamics in an era of global change and biodiversity declines. While real‐time automated abiotic components has been possible for some time, biotic components—for example, individual behaviours traits, species abundance distribution—is far more challenging. Recent technological advancements offer potential solutions achieve this through: (i) increasingly affordable high‐throughput recording hardware, which can collect rich multidimensional data, (ii) accessible artificial intelligence approaches, extract ecological knowledge from large datasets. However, automating the facets communities via such technologies primarily achieved at low spatiotemporal resolutions within limited steps workflow. Here, we review existing data processing that enable communities. We then present novel frameworks combine technologies, forming fully pipelines detect, track, classify count multiple species, record behavioural morphological have previously impossible achieve. Based on these rapidly developing illustrate a solution one greatest challenges ecology: ability generate high‐resolution, standardised across complex ecologies.

Abstract Biodiversity is in decline due to human‐induced pressures on ecosystems around the world. To be able counteract this alarming trend, it paramount closely monitor biodiversity at global scales. Because practically impossible with traditional methods, last decade has seen a strong push for new solutions. In aquatic ecosystems, monitoring of species from environmental DNA (eDNA) emerged as one most powerful tools our disposal, but terrestrial power eDNA so far been hampered by local scale samples. study, we report successful detection insects airborne samples taken field. We compare results two insect methods (1) light traps moth and (2) transect walks butterflies wild bees. Airborne metabarcoding revealed six classes arthropods, twelve order insects—including representatives four largest orders: Diptera (flies), Lepidoptera (butterflies moths), Coleoptera (beetles), Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, ants). did not detect all observed using suggest further directions development metabarcoding. also recovered nine vertebrates, including frogs, birds, mammals well 12 other phyla. potential become tool monitoring, many impactful applications pests, invasive, or endangered disease vectors.

Abstract Analysis of environmental DNA is increasingly used to characterize ecological communities, but the effectiveness this approach depends on accuracy taxonomic reference databases. The MIDORI databases, first released in 2017, were built improve for mitochondrial metazoan (animal) sequences. has now been significantly improved and renamed MIDORI2 (available at http://www.reference‐midori.info ). Like MIDORI, from GenBank contains curated sequences thirteen protein‐coding two ribosomal RNA genes. Coverage substantially expanded cover all eukaryotes, including fungi, green algae land plants, other multicellular algal groups, diverse protist lineages. also includes not only species with full binomials, taxa referred by genus left unspecified (“sp.”). Another new feature updating databases approximately every months version numbers corresponding each release. Additional potentially erroneously annotated have removed. Finally, ability export data files BLAST+ added original preformatted five assignment programs, amino acid are made available As a technical validation, we conducted preliminary comparison performance programs. Results suggest that top hits performed better assigning CO1 than alignment‐free methods based compositional features. Comparing commonly sequences, CO‐ARBitrator BOLD, show broader range non‐metazoan taxa. Overall, many contexts, offers clear advantages: higher diversity variety user‐friendly features, regular updates. particularly well‐suited studies target genes broad primers.

ABSTRACT Terrestrial vertebrates are experiencing worldwide population declines and species extinctions. To effectively conserve remaining populations species, rapid, cost‐effective, scalable methods needed to complement longstanding monitoring methods. Increasingly, environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based approaches being used for terrestrial vertebrate biomonitoring within a range of environments. However, as we move eDNA onto land, presented with new set challenges. This necessitates the development “best‐practice” sample collection guidelines systems purpose detecting vertebrates. address these needs, conducted systematic literature review 143 peer‐reviewed papers applying (excluding Lissamphibia) that were published between 2012 2023. We summarize use biomonitoring, focusing on study design field techniques. Over decade observe steady growth in annual number publications, 3 33 The majority reviewed studies targeted mammals temperate forest regions. While an equal focused metabarcoding approach assess community taxon composition and/or species‐specific detection methods, novel uses increasingly published. These include animal behavior genetics. record three types sampling strategies, eight different substrate types, seven preservation suggesting there is no “one size fits all” eDNA‐based methodology when With multitude aims, across environments, target organisms ecologies, standardization extremely challenging. table known factors influencing Furthermore, identify five key considerations be addressed targeting aim guiding decision making.

Abstract Analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) from passively collected airborne dust has demonstrated broad success for sensitive and robust detection plants. Recent experiments at small spatial scales have suggested that animals can also be detected using eDNA. However, eDNA analysis never been used a long‐term whole‐community assessment natural terrestrial community or with passive collectors. We conducted metabarcoding survey targeting vertebrate carried in the air on an approximately 130‐acre shortgrass prairie over course year. Our wide variety animal forms including amphibian species, several bird both large mammals. found signals changed known patterns activity, wind speed, rainfall. Overall, we demonstrate carries could to detect species environment minimal effort. To develop this as valuable monitoring tool, research needs focus ecology air, which includes origin, state, transport, dispersal, fate environment.
