AI and machine learning are expected to contribute to predictive modelling in ecology.

The soil microbiome is a sensitive system that reflects the fluctuations in the environment and rapidly responds to any environmental changes.

Remote sensing is used to gather satellite imagery in environmental monitoring.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a massively parallel sequencing technology that offers high speed and scalability of the sequencing process, together with deep sequencing of target DNA regions and a high results preciseness.

eDNA metabarcoding comprises taking environmental samples, extracting RNA, amplifying it through PCR with general or universal primers, and sequencing the amplification product through NGS to generate a huge amount of raw sequencing data.

Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) and source outcome pathways (STOs) are crucial measurable levels in environmental risk assessment studies at all biological organization levels.

Transcriptomic analyses help determine which genes are active in the cell.

Ecotoxicology is an applied science that:

Metabolite profiling can show the effects of environmental stresses on the organism.

The metabarcoding searches for taxonomic identification at a large scale through RNA analysis of a single or a small number of genes.
