Acoustic telemetry has helped overcome many of the challenges faced when studying the
movement ecology of aquatic species, allowing to obtain unprecedented amounts of data …

Offshore wind power generation structures are scheduled for development in the Canary
Islands, potentially resulting in spatial overlap with various maritime activities, particularly …

Abstract Drifting Fish Aggregating Devices (dFADs) are a major fishing mode for tropical
tuna purse seine fisheries worldwide. However, the extent of dFAD use remains poorly …

For many years, tremendous effort has been dedicated to developing new industrial tuna
fisheries, while their adverse impacts on threatened marine species have received relatively …

Natural floating objects (FOBs) have always been a major component of the habitat of
pelagic species. Since the 1990s, the number of FOBs in the open ocean has increased …

Managing populations of wild harvested species requires the ability to regularly provide
accurate abundance assessments. For most marine species, changes in abundance can …

For centuries fishers have exploited the propensity for tuna to associate with floating objects,
yet the reasons and mechanisms behind this behavior remain unclear. The number of man …

Abstract Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs) are man-made floating objects deployed by
fishers to aggregate tuna and facilitate their catch. Currently, more than half of the global …

This study addresses novel questions on the dynamics of tuna aggregations around floating
objects, using echosounder buoys data collected throughout the drifts of newly deployed …

We investigated the associative behavior of skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellowfin
(Thunnus albacares), and bigeye (T. obsesus) tuna within multi‐species aggregations …
