Figure 2: Workflow for UV degradation experiments. Each layer represents a different day of sampling, with each day containing four experimental treatments: full sun, half sun, shade (i.e. full shade), and no sun. The numbers within the sun for the first three treatments indicate the proportion of each day eDNA was exposed to the indicated conditions. Samples from each treatment are collected and filtered each day, then the DNA is extracted from filters and stored until all days have been completed.
