Seasonal movements, aggregations and diving behavior of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) revealed with archival tags. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Electronic tags were used to examine the seasonal movements, aggregations and diving behaviors of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) to better understand their migration ecology and oceanic habitat utilization.

The Fate of Atlantic Bluefin Tuna [PDF]
Science, 2010 For several years, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) have made Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT) the archetype of overfishing and general mismanagement of the world fisheries. There are good reasons for this, as BFT crystallizes most of the problems of many fisheries: severe overcapacity, open access in international waters, high market value, and ...

Informing Management of Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Using Telemetry Data
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Sustainable management of exploited marine fish and wildlife populations requires knowledge about their productivity. Survival from natural causes of mortality is a key component of population productivity, but is notoriously difficult to estimate.

First estimates of metabolic rate in Atlantic bluefin tuna larvae [PDF]
Journal of Fish Biology, 2020 AbstractAtlantic bluefin tuna is an iconic scombrid species with a high commercial and ecological value. Despite their importance, many physiological aspects, especially during the larval stages, are still unknown. Metabolic rates are one of the understudied aspects in scombrid larvae, likely due to challenges associated to larval handling before and ...
