Tunas off northwest Africa: The epipelagic diet of The Bigeye and Skipjack tunas [PDF]
Abstract Tunas are among the most exploited top predators worldwide, with negative impacts on some of their stocks. Changes in their population abundance can impact marine food-webs and have the potential to alter entire ecosystems. To better understand the impacts of the exploitation of tuna stocks in the most critical habitats, basic knowledge on ...

Dynamic optimal foraging theory explains vertical migrations of Bigeye tuna [PDF]
AbstractBigeye tuna are known for remarkable daytime vertical migrations between deep water, where food is abundant but the water is cold, and the surface, where water is warm but food is relatively scarce. Here we investigate if these dive patterns can be explained by dynamic optimal foraging theory, where the tuna maximizes its energy harvest rate ...
