Monitoring marine alien species in Norway: A pilot study for implementing a national program
Om publikasjonen
This report tests the effectiveness of different methods for detecting alien marine species in three different ports in Rogaland county.
The methods used largely followed the recommendations in the HELCOM protocol, which are developed for the Baltic Sea, but also included beach survey, video survey, dredging and extensive use of DNA methods.
Material from zooplankton samples, scrapings from settlement panels as well as e-DNA samples from filtrated water and sediments were subject to meta-barcoding.
