Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting trophic position in sharks of the north-west Atlantic Ocean using stable isotope analysis
TL;DR: No statistical differences were found between TP estimations and those derived from published stomach contents analyses, indicating that stable isotope data may be used to estimate the trophic status of sharks.
BookDOI
Tagging and tracking of marine animals with electronic devices
Jennifer L. Nielsen,Haritz Arrizabalaga,Nuno Fragoso,Alistair J. Hobday,Molly Lutcavage,John R. Sibert +5 more
TL;DR: A review of the use of acoustic telemetry technology and a perspective on its diversification relative to Coastal Tracking Arrays can be found in this article, where the authors present an application of electronic tags to fisheries management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diet and trophic position of Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus ) inferred from stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis
TL;DR: The close relationship between the juvenile bluefin δ15N values and those of suspension feeders suggests that nektonic crustaceans or zooplankton may contribute significantly to the diet of bluefin tuna, a food source previously overlooked for this species in the northwest Atlantic Ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracking adult North Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the northwestern Atlantic using ultrasonic telemetry
TL;DR: Ulasonic, depth-sensitive transmitters were used to track the horizontal and vertical movements, for up to 48 h, of 11 adult North Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus Linnaeus) in order to provide the spatial, temporal, and environmental information required for direct assessment of adultbluefin tuna abundance using aerial surveys.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating post-release behaviour modification in large pelagic fish deployed with pop-up satellite archival tags
John P. Hoolihan,Jiangang Luo,Francisco J. Abascal,Steven E. Campana,Gregorio De Metrio,Heidi Dewar,Michael L. Domeier,Lucy A. Howey,Molly Lutcavage,Michael K. Musyl,John D. Neilson,Eric S. Orbesen,Eric D. Prince,Jay R. Rooker +13 more
TL;DR: Hoolihan et al. as discussed by the authors evaluated post-release behaviour modification in large pelagic fish deployed with pop-up satellite archival tags using empirical eigenfunction analysis.
