Individual movement modeling expands the power of migratory species observations: North Atlantic right whale case study

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...

Trawling in the Mediterranean: An Exploration of Empirical Relations Connecting Fishing Gears, Otterboards and Propulsive Characteristics of Fishing Vessels

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Fishing pressure is often expressed in terms of a vessels physical attributes, like tonnage and engine power, while a common definition of fishing capacity identifies vessel size as a convenient proxy for the size of the gear used.

Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...
