Maine Public cites UMaine partnership in ocean eDNA project
Maine Public cited the University of Maine as co-leader of an ocean monitoring project funded by the National Science Foundation in an interview with co-investigator Dave Emerson, a senior research scientist at the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences. The project involves capturing and sequencing organismal DNA in ocean water to assess species movement and to predict emergent issues such as algal blooms and red tide outbreaks.
