.@WarrenCornwall from @ScienceMagazine joined Professor David Sims & his research team off the #CanaryIslands for #SharkTagging & to learn about the 'unsettling' environmental trend, called ocean #deoxygenation that is affecting marine life. @TheSimsLab science.org/content/article/…

Our #GlobalSharkMovementProject research team @thembauk @MoveCIBIO has just returned from the incredible Azores where we were satellite tracking #mako and blue #sharks w/ DOP #UniversidadedosAcores - to understand shark space-use & #hotspot formation #SharkCentral #OceanDeoxyfish

Amazing to have been a part of the study looking at the cryptic global collision-risk between ships and whale sharks! Lead by the incredible @FreyaWomersley and @TheSimsLab. And that art... epic. #GlobalSharkMovementProject

Another deployment of our MultiS float with acceleration/video sensors on the back of a blue shark. Fingers crossed for the recovery on Sunday! The pop-up will be triggered by our custom-made, high precision timer-and-release system!

Deploying our multi-sensor float on a 2.95m blue shark! The float had acceleration, speed, depth, video and external/internal temperature sensors. The onboard GPS worked perfectly thus we retrieved the tag the next day! @MoveCIBIO @TheSimsLab @PrendergastSoph

For #SharkAwarenessDay here're some satellite tracks of blue & shortfin mako #sharks we've collected over last 12 months - movement data help us understand where & when they overlap most w/ #fishing effort - both spp need proper #HighSeas management globalsharkmovement.org

In @nature we demonstrate that randomly deleting up to 75% of #fishing effort grid cells within five sub-regions, the central results and conclusions of our paper do not change. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Read the original study here: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Important and timely re-analysis of our shark/fisheries risk work
MOVE@MoveCIBIO8 Jul 2021
In @nature we showed that pelagic #shark catches were higher in areas with higher #fishing exposure (FEI), "[...] corroborating our previously published result that FEI reflects fishing-induced shark mortality". Shark #hotspots need protection. go.nature.com/3AAoo1P
