Description

This report summarizes results from water samples collected from 105 ponds in Southern Norway in 2019 to determine amphibian biodiversity in the ponds.

Data Records

The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 61 records.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Geographic Coverage

A selected number of systems was sampled during different seasons to provide the necessary basis for an optimal sampling design for a national monitoring program of BD and amphibian diversity in southern Norway.

Project Data

The main objectives of this project were to collect samples from a high number of waterbodies to obtain a detailed picture of the presence of BD and amphibians in southern Norway. Furthermore, a selected number of systems was sampled during different seasons to provide the necessary basis for an optimal sampling design for a national monitoring program of BD and amphibian diversity.

Title Monitoring and mapping of amphibian species using environmental DNA
Identifier eDNA
Funding The project was funded by the Norwegian Environmental Agency "Miljødirektoratet"
Study Area Description We carried out sampling of 5 selected smaller waters in Akershus that have been sampled in 2017 (Taugbøl et al. 2017) and expanded the study to an additional 100 ponds, lakes and watercourses.
Design Description Water samples were collected in three occasions in May 26-28, July 23-26 and September 6- 9 2019 to find the optimal sampling season.

Sampling Methods

Water samples were collected using 50 ml syringe and Stervix filter units. Approximately 100-600 ml of water was injected in Stervix filter.

Study Extent Norway
Quality Control Negative controls were prepared and also positive control. PCRs were run in triplicates.
