Key takeaways: eRNA degraded significantly faster than eDNA across markers; dPCR kept detection high even under strong dilution—signals still reached the terminal mesocosm. Huge thanks to everyone who helped.

4 connected ponds (C1→C4) with serial dilutions plus an isolated control; sampled up to 24 days. This lets us test detectability across the network.
