Well‐designed and effectively managed networks of marine reserves can be effective tools
for both fisheries management and biodiversity conservation. Connectivity, the demographic …

Connectivity is a vital component of metapopulation and landscape ecology, influencing
fundamental processes such as population dynamics, evolution, and community responses …

Southern bluefin tuna is a highly valuable, severely depleted species, whose abundance
and productivity have been difficult to assess with conventional fishery data. Here we use …

Manta and devil rays are filter-feeding elasmobranchs that are found circumglobally in
tropical and subtropical waters. Although relatively understudied for most of the Twentieth …

Capture of the target, bycatch, and protected species in fisheries is often regulated through
spatial measures that partition fishing effort, including areal closures. In eastern Australian …

Satellite telemetry was used to study the movements and behaviour of ten blue sharks and
one individual each of shortfin mako, thresher and bigeye thresher off eastern Australia. The …

Reduction of bycatch through spatial management is one possible approach in fisheries
management. One requirement is description of the habitat of the species in question, and …

Frequent fishing activities are causing overfishing, destroying the habitat of marine life, and
threatening global marine biodiversity. Understanding the dynamics of fishing activities and …

We present a process‐based approach to estimate residency and behavior from uncertain
and temporally correlated movement data collected with electronic tags. The estimation …

Albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga) are an important upper tropic-level oceanic predator with
a circum-global distribution. Little is known of the movements and diet of albacore tuna in the …
