eDNA Sampler for Deep Marine Environments
FY 2022-23 · 2022-10-31
Summary
The aim of this project is to design and develop a deep eDNA sampler that is operationally rated to depths of 3000 meters or more. A deep eDNA sampler will permit the collection of DNA samples at sites including: wind-farm installations, marine-protected areas, oil and gas infrastructure, and ocean observatories for ecological monitoring and for climate change impact assessments along Canadian coasts and maritime regions.

Description (French)
L’objectif de ce projet est de concevoir et de développer un échantillonneur d’ADN électronique pour les profondeurs qui soit opérationnel à des profondeurs de 3000 mètres ou plus. Cet échantillonneur permettra de prélever des échantillons d’ADN sur des sites comme des parcs éoliens, des zones marines protégées, des infrastructures pétrolières et gazières et des observatoires océaniques pour la surveillance écologique et l’évaluation de l’impact des changements climatiques le long des côtes et des régions maritimes du Canada.
