Connecting eDNA with action

Environmental DNA (eDNA) provides a powerful lens into the life within our ecosystems. It has the potential to improve our ability to make science-based decisions across a wide range of objectives – from community efforts to biosecurity risk management to large scale ecological and conservation measures.

The core challenge in making eDNA accessible is the need to embrace complexity yet distil data and insights into a format that is easy to digest, visual and connects eDNA with a wide diversity of stakeholder groups.

Ripple bridges this gap and embeds eDNA science into day-to-day decision making and reporting.

Connecting eDNA with action

Ripple includes two dedicated modules. The first module, “Biosecurity and biodiversity” supports biodiversity surveys and biosecurity activities. For example, the identification and management of biosecurity incursions, and the discovery of new populations of nationally critical endemic species. Ripple’s second module, “Metrics” is currently in development and focusses on water quality, including metrics for monitoring ecosystem health.

Biosecurity and biodiversity

This module is your interface to the data – it does away with spreadsheets and enables the temporal and spatial exploration of ecosystem-wide information. Explore different data sets and create highly customised searches. Create a custom area to focus on a locale of interest to you. The download functions allow easy access to reports, images and the underlying data of your search.

Use the saved searches function to create customised searches tailored to your interests. Select the notification function to set alerts (coming soon).
