Proud to be part of this huge collaborative work in #Nature identifying pelagic shark hotspots & how they are threatened by longline fishing @Macquarie_Uni – at Sydney, New South Wales
Check out new @nature paper: major pelagic #sharks #hotspots have limited refuge from longline #fishing effort #GlobalSharkMovementProject #HopeSpots @thembauk @unisouthampton @nunoqueiroz29 @Stanford @HopkinsMarine @duarteoceans @AnaMMSequeira

Major high seas fishing activities are centred on ecologically important shark hotspots worldwide! New research @nature @CIBIO_InBIO @thembauk #GlobalSharkMovementProject

Proud to have been able to contribute to this fantastic piece of work, well done @TheSimsLab and all the other 150+ researchers from around the world who made this possible. An unprecedented and frightening view of the threats pelagic #sharks face at a global scale. @NRF_SAIAB
Satellite tracking nearly 2,000 pelagic sharks from 23 species by #GlobalSharkMovementProject in ATL, IND and PAC oceans shows #hotspots overlapped by longline #fishing – identifies key conservation targets @nature @thembauk #HopeSpots @GlobalFishWatch

Hace unos años la revista Biological Conservation miró cuándo enviaban los científicos sus artículos a la revista. Los españoles lo hacían un 10% de las veces en fin de semana y un 20% por la noche.
