A probabilistic time geographic approach to quantifying seabird‐vessel interactions

Animal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page 816-829, December 2024.
We develop a time geographic method to measure the probability of individual seabirds interacting with individual fishing vessels, even when GPS data are low in resolution. We demonstrate the approach with a case study of an Endangered albatross in the South Pacific high seas, but the same method could be used to quantify interaction probability of ...

Characterization and Mapping of a Deep-Sea Sponge Ground on the Tropic Seamount (Northeast Tropical Atlantic): Implications for Spatial Management in the High Seas

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Ferromanganese crusts occurring on seamounts are a potential resource for rare earth elements that are critical for low-carbon technologies. Seamounts, however, host vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs), which means that spatial management is needed to ...
