The Environmental DNA (eDNA) Survey in the Southern New England Wind Energy Area aims to assess the impact of offshore wind projects on marine life, including protected species and marine habitats. The project utilizes eDNA sampling alongside passive acoustic monitoring to track marine biodiversity over time, comparing species presence before and after wind turbine construction.
