We help marine infrastructure projects access leading biodiversity intelligence by using eDNA-powered solutions in the oceans, right here in Australia.
As offshore wind energy expands to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, understanding its environmental impact is crucial. eDNA offers an innovative, non-invasive tool for tracking biodiversity and detecting invasive species, delivering essential data on the effects of wind farms on marine ecosystems. Increasingly integrated into environmental impact assessments across Europe, eDNA is now gaining traction in Australia for feasibility studies.
- Identify key ecological risks upfront during marine feasibility surveys.
- Gather baseline data into species presence efficiently without invasive or costly techniques.
- Offer insights into biological changes for better decision-making and adaptive management strategies.
- Track the spread of invasive species and assess pollution impacts during operations.
- Evaluate and support habitat health and restoration initiatives.
- Assess the impact of marine infrastructure on biodiversity.
- Keep stakeholders updated before, during and after construction activities with measurable and trackable data.
Monitor impacts across fish, marine mammals and benthic invertebrates communities and determine distribution of priority species.
Access to robust data helps stakeholders and regulators evaluate the effects of offshore wind farms on marine ecosystems and make informed decisions for sustainable development.
eDNA provides early detection of invasive species, allowing for timely management actions to protect native biodiversity and maintain ecosystem health around wind farm sites.
Our partnership with McLane Labs provides Australia access to leading marine eDNA sampling technology. Their newest eDNA sampler, RoCSI, can collect up to 48 samples at a depth of 6,000 meters.
Our eDNA biodiversity assessment solutions, Screen and Atlas, allow you to map one or two biodiversity groups or the full spectrum of biodiversity. Explore our solutions to uncover insights ranging from tiny marine organisms to mammals.
We are your trusted biodiversity partner, helping you take better action for nature.
