Ecohydrology in major urban rivers in Berlin through stable isotopes and eDNA Maria Warter maria.warter@igb-berlin.de Weekly sampling of stable water isotopes (D18O, d2H), water chemistry (major ions), water quality (EC,pH, Temp, O2) and environmental DNA (bacteria and diatoms) at four sites across Berlin.

Site Locations:

1) Spree (Kaisersteg) – SRxxx; 52.45823179271608, 13.51987177242569

4) Panke (Wiesenstraße) – PRxxx, 52.548539235321286, 13.372161635163097

Data gap of eDNA in February 2022 due to pandemic related delay in delivery of eDNA filter material.
