Since then we have generated 22,494 TICI scores from around New Zealand, gaining a vivid picture of stream condition and #biodiversity across the country. SCIENCE! 😍

We have no idea which species many of these sequences belong to - but the average indicator value of the TICI sequences found in a sample gives an accurate measure of stream health...

The TICI, or taxon-independent community index, uses a learning algorithm to assign 'indicator values' to each of 3,000 commonly-detected eDNA sequences...

Thanks for putting this together! Would love to be added to this list if poss 🙏
