Quantifying the Temporal Dynamics of Marine Biodiversity Under Anthropogenic Impacts Using eDNA Metabarcoding Open
Marine biodiversity is rapidly declining due to anthropogenic activities; however, the key causal agents of this decline remain largely elusive. Improving our understanding of anthropogenic impact on biodiversity dynamics requires fine‐sca…
