e-DNA powered Nature Intelligence in Coastal Ecosystems. Tracking the state of nature in some planet’s most vital habitats

Discover how eDNA's technology is revolutionizing our understanding of coastal ecosystems that encompass mangroves, seagrass meadows, reefs, and kelp forests. This guide presents real-world case studies that demonstrate how eDNA generates actionable information to guide restoration, expansion of marine protected areas, and sustainable blue economy initiatives. The guide addresses:

- Why biodiversity monitoring is key to coastal conservation.

- How eDNA establishes comprehensive biodiversity baselines to inform planning.

- Real-world case studies demonstrating the impact of eDNA on vital habitats.

- Practical frameworks for tracking restoration outcomes over time for adaptive management. 

- Models for participatory monitoring involving local communities.
