🐳 Hello #Twitter! 🐳This is the official account of the @BiodiversaPlus project #eWHALE. Our aim is to connect marine #conservation efforts, #eDNA, #WhaleWatching, and #CitizenScience. Come and join us on this journey. ewhale.eu

Look who is happily pipetting away at our @uniinnsbruck @AAEuibk laboratory! It is @Eleonora_Bar96 working on the 🇮🇹 #eDNA samples collected this summer together with @TethysResearch

One of my favorite trips of this year’s field season🐋🧬
Friday fun featuring a curious #SpermWhale approaching the @cwazores boat and our #eDNA filtration equipment 😉. (Please note: safety distance is always kept by the skippers‼️ Curious whales sometimes approach regardless) @MarineBio_LKRod @uniinnsbruck @AAEuibk @Bettina_Thal

Not as pretty as #fieldwork pictures, but almost as exciting! First #eDNA filter shipments of 2024 are arriving in #Innsbruck @uniinnsbruck 🥳

ACCOBAMS aims to reduce cetacean mortality caused by bycatches and entanglement in nets, a major issue for sustainable fisheries. Find out how selective fishing methods can help: 🔗 accobams.org/wp-content/uplo…

A bit more than a week left (deadline 31 July) to apply to the postdoc on #population_genomics of dolphins and pilot whales 🐬🐋 in the Arctic/North Atlantic
Come and work with us on #population_genomics of dolphins and pilot whales 🐬🐋 in the Arctic/North Atlantic: setur.totalview.cloud/recrui… postdoc position based at the University of the Faroe Islands with possible visits at the Globe Institute, Copenhagen and GINR in Nuuk, Greenland
Happy hump(back)day from #Iceland! Amazing pics used for #photoID by the @uni_iceland team based at the Research Center #Húsavík. @MaHeRasmussen

So excited that my favourite PhD chapter looking at #marinemammal habitat use in relation to key #prey is now published in #EnvironmentalDNA @CRRU @LeedsEcoEvo doi.org/10.1002/edn3.587
Happy weekend! We'll be looking for #spermwhales and #finwhales in the #Med 😉 @EleBarb96 @TethysResearch #eDNA #CitizenScience
It is #eDNA #CitizenScience fieldwork season! 🥳 @MarineBio_LKRod sampling on the #Azores with @cwazores , @EleBarb96 & @TethysResearch in the #Med, Belen Ovide with @northsailing in #Iceland

Our study on fin whale food talk is mentioned in this month's National Geographic portuguese edition, on an interesting article about fin whales seen off the coast of Portugal royalsocietypublishing.org/d… @MiriamRomagosa @OkeanosUac
The first part of our #CitizenScience toolbox is online! 🥳 Come visit us at ewhale.eu/citizen_science/ for more information on #biodiversity #conservation #eDNA #CitizenScience #whales #dolphins #sharks
Preprint alert! 🚨Comparing laboratory performance is key for multinational #eDNA initiatives, and it all starts with #extraction. Plus: brand new species-specific assays for 🐋 & 🦈 @MarineBio_LKRod @EleBarb96 @pterojxcktyl @Lo_De_Bonis @TeddyUrvois @ErwanQuemere & many more!
Comparing DNA extraction methods across four international laboratories reveals significant variability in efficiency, highlighting the need for standardised protocols in multinational #eDNA #biodiversity projects.

Fantastic talk from @BettyBoyse on her PhD work about using #eDNA to track spatiotemporal variation in habitat use by cetaceans and their prey. More details here: doi.org/10.1101/2023.12.21.5… #ECS #ECSconference2024 @ScienceLeeds @LeedsEcoEvo @MariaBeger
Tonight, @MarineBio_LKRod will be closing day 2 of #ECSconference2024 with a splash! 🐳Location, equipment and standardization of laboratory processing are key for successful #whale, #dolphin, #shark #eDNA sampling.
