Are you ready for autonomous eDNA sampling? 🌊 Well Fugro are! 👏 Together with Fugro and Dartmouth Ocean Technologies (DOT) we have been redefining the boundaries of eDNA collection with the recent deployment of the NM-DOT eDNA autosampler near the Fugro offices in Portchester. ✅ The Project: · Conducted at the Fugro Portchester site,Trafalgar Wharf Marina · Trained the Fugro team on deployment and operation of the autosampler · Validated eDNA data quality against manual sampling The autosampler produced high-quality eDNA datasets, matching the performance of manual sampling! ✅ Autonomous Sampling benefits: · The autosampler can be deployed for months, collecting eDNA autonomously · Deploy the sampler during routine operations · Reduces risks and hands-on time for sampling crews · Delivers substantial sampling cost savings ✅ End-to-End eDNA Service: · Naturemetrics' eDNA filters integrate seamlessly into the autosampler · Complete package from sample collection to nature intelligence reports · Clients can access their comprehensive data via the NatureMetrics platform empowering data-driven decision-making. Have we spiked your interest? 🤔 Drop Ben Goymer a message to discuss integrating the autosampler in your operations today! #Fugro #DOT #eDNA #EnvironmentalMonitoring #OffshoreWind #NatureMetrics #Innovation #NatureIntelligence

We are excited to introduce the DOT-NM Autosampler, a groundbreaking tool for monitoring aquatic environments! In collaboration with Dartmouth Ocean Technologies (DOT), we have created a system that automatically gathers eDNA samples, offering valuable insights into biodiversity on a large scale. Why it's important: - Autonomous sampling without the need for extensive vessel campaigns - Cost-effective, continuous data collection, even in remote locations - Seamless integration with NatureMetrics' eDNA workflows and bioinformatics After extensive testing, the Autosampler has proven to match the species detection and biodiversity resolution of traditional methods. From sample collection to lab analysis and data visualisation, our solution streamlines environmental monitoring, providing actionable insights for better management.
