Immersion patterns alone can predict vessel following by albatrosses
We demonstrate that seabird immersion patterns alone can detect high‐risk seabird‐vessel interactions, even in the absence of locational data for both seabirds and vessels. Our approach could allow for more comprehensive seabird bycatch risk assessments that quantify previously hidden seabird‐vessel interactions, such as those involving migratory life ...
