Benthic animal-borne sensors and citizen science combine to validate ocean modelling (2022)
Journal Article
Lavender, E., Aleynik, D., Dodd, J., Illian, J., James, M., Smout, S., & Thorburn, J. A. (2022). Benthic animal-borne sensors and citizen science combine to validate ocean modelling. Scientific Reports, 12, Article 16613. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-20254-z

Developments in animal electronic tagging and tracking have transformed the field of movement ecology, but interest is also growing in the contributions of tagged animals to oceanography. Animal-borne sensors can address data gaps, improve ocean mode... Read More about Benthic animal-borne sensors and citizen science combine to validate ocean modelling.

Extensive oceanic mesopelagic habitat use of a migratory continental shark species (2022)
Journal Article
Schaber, M., Gastauer, S., Cisewski, B., Hielscher, N., Janke, M., Peña, M., Sakinan, S., & Thorburn, J. (2022). Extensive oceanic mesopelagic habitat use of a migratory continental shark species. Scientific Reports, 12, Article 2047. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-05989-z

The identification of movement and behaviour patterns, as well as inter- and intra-population connectivity is crucial in order to implement effective and functional management and conservation measures for threatened migratory species such as tope (G...
