Thesis
Macarthur, J. A. (2022). What is an otter's favourite food? - a molecular investigation into the dietary preferences of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) across the River Hull Catchment. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4297795

Knowledge of top predator diets is fundamental to designing appropriate management strategies which ensure the protection of both predator and prey populations. The Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) has traditionally been described as...

Spatio-temporal monitoring of lake fish spawning activity using environmental DNA metabarcoding (2022)
Journal Article
Di Muri, C., Lawson Handley, L., Bean, C. W., Benucci, M., Harper, L. R., James, B., …Hänfling, B. (2023). Spatio-temporal monitoring of lake fish spawning activity using environmental DNA metabarcoding. Environmental DNA, 5(5), 849-860. https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.343

Determining the timing and location of fish reproductive events is crucial for the implementation of correct management and conservation schemes. Conventional methods used to monitor these events are often unable to assess the spawning activity direc...
