Bottom Trawling and Multi‐Marker eDNA Metabarcoding Surveys Reveal Highly Diverse Vertebrate and Crustacean Communities: A Case Study in an Urbanized Subtropical Estuary

Bottom Trawling and Multi‐Marker eDNA Metabarcoding Surveys Reveal Highly Diverse Vertebrate and Crustacean Communities: A Case Study in an Urbanized Subtropical Estuary

ABSTRACT Estuarine habitats serve as critical feeding and nursery grounds for many aquatic species and support fisheries. However, monitoring these complex ecosystems using conventional trawling methods is destructive, costly, and labor‐intensive. This study compared trawling and a multi‐marker envi...
