Data from: Unravelling large-scale patterns and drivers of biodiversity in dry rivers

Abstract

We conducted a coordinated experiment and a metabarcoding approach on environmental DNA targeting multiple taxa (i.e. Archaea, Bacteria, Fungi, Algae, Protozoa, Nematoda, Arthropoda, and Streptophyta). Dry sediments were collected from 84 non-perennial rivers across 19 countries on four continents to investigate biodiversity patterns and drivers.
