Description

Undertaking the first step towards conservation of associated wetland areas Neretva River, Trebižat, and Hutovo Blato is conducting primary research in the areas. The eDNA method will kick-start a novel way of researching rich biodiversity areas, enabling larger scope of faunal research in a shorter amount of time. A combination of traditional and novel methods of data gathering will set a necessary foundation for future protection and appropriate management of targeted areas.



This project is funded as part of a partnership between DIMFE and CEPF.
