Accuracy of sediment eDNA metabarcoding for assessment of impact from offshore oil drilling
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to sequence the metazoan (COI marker), and total eukaryotic (18S marker) benthic components. We targeted a gradient of sites ranging from high to typical, low impacts, located near active production platforms and reference sites on the Norwegian continental shelf, in the North and Barents Seas.
