Natural England (NE) requires the utilization of non-invasive techniques, such as environmental DNA (eDNA), to evaluate ichthyofauna communities within High Priority Marine Protected Areas (HPMAs), focusing primarily on the Allonby Bay region. Conventional surveys in these protected and dynamically changing environments demand resource-intensive and costly methodologies, including the comprehensive monitoring of fish populations. Therefore, this presents an auspicious occasion to initiate a pilot study and introduce innovative technologies to enhance the efficiency of fish monitoring assessments.
