Environmental DNA
Research using eDNA is coming into its own and on Tetiaroa we are leading the global trend. With simple collection methods and many stories to be told, this will be an extremely important tool for the future of research on Tetiaroa and around the world.
The atoll of Tetiaroa is created entirely of organic material, all of which comes from living organisms, all of which have DNA in their cells.
On Tetiaroa researchers are busy identifying and developing barcodes for every species on the island.
