Predators on track for ocean protection around Antarctica
Predators on track for ocean protection around Antarctica
Satellite tracking of marine predators in the Southern Ocean has revealed key ecological areas under disproportionate pressure from human activities. These results show the value of tracking data for informing conservation efforts.
Ana M. M. Sequeira, from Oceans Institute and School of Biological Sciences, University of Western Australia, Perth, Western Australia advocates organising a worldwide movement within the community of animal-tracking researchers, to drive the sharing of these data and to combine them with information about human activities at sea. She argues that Combining such information will deliver much-needed evidence of the extent of existing threats, to inform managers and policymakers in a timely manner.
