📣 On #WorldOceanDay, we're excited to announce our Open Ocean Project, a bold new initiative funded through #TheAudaciousProject. 🙌 🌊 See how we plan to revolutionize ocean management through open data and increased transparency: globalfishingwatch.org/open-ocean-pro…

A multistage modeling approach finds depredation by odontocetes costs the Hawai‘i longline tuna fishery approximately 100 t and one million USD annually buff.ly/3K7UKGz #FishSci from @DukeMarineLab @DukeEnvironment @NOAAFish_PIRO

From our Coastal & #MarineEcology track: How can longline fishing boats prevent marine predators from stealing fish from their lines - & reduce bycatch risk? A new study offers answers #FalseKillerWhales #Depredation #OpenAccess @faderjoe @DukeMarineLab doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.3…

Got megafauna to measure from aerial imagery? Check out #MorphoMetriX, an #opensource #photogrammetry software for morphometric analysis. No coding experience needed to create custom measurements! Had a blast working with @WalterT3 on this! #drones4good joss.theoj.org/papers/10.2110…

Headed to Barcelona today for the World Marine Mammal Conference. I’ll be presenting dissertation work on my favorite toothy whales the false killer whale. these guys take fish caught in tuna fisheries, sometimes… instagram.com/p/B5uSmh4hEKn/…

TLDR: no touchy wildlife unless you are a trained scientist doing so to help the animal or it’s population. also Laysan #albatross in #Hawaii are doing much better thanks to some kickass… instagram.com/p/BtWOef-lIDW/…

Broke a trailer to get here and not the greatest conditions in the world today, but all is well when you’re cruisin with these guys🤙 just look at that tiny blowhole!😍 Stenella… instagram.com/p/BrEhECQlB8O/…

Here we go! Stacy Zhang and I are runnin another load of supplies RIGHT NOW to help out the heavily impacted communities in ‘Down East’ Carteret County. These are super isolated and… instagram.com/p/Bn9lnc8B2X3/…

Guess I should do this too.. Smooth evacuation today and will be riding out the storm with friends in Durham NC. Still a bit close to the whopping 🍆 of uncertainty but forecast isn’t too… instagram.com/p/BnpxTvIhB4E/…

Had a blast earlier this week with brendan_runde91 and crew of the RV Cape Fear. Brendan and his team do some awesome work studying MPA effectiveness and occurrence and post release… instagram.com/p/BnKBy-GBjFz/…

All about the babies today. Had a couple newborns in a group of spinner dolphins and a mom with new baby rough-toothed dolphin (note the fetal folds). Also some pretty good light at the… instagram.com/p/BmXL7NJBFoj/…

Check out our latest paper in @ScienceAdvances using @GlobalFishWatch data, statistical models and oceanographic variables to predict the current and future distributions of longliners in the #highseas. Product of the @nereusprogram advances.sciencemag.org/content/4/8/ea…

Sad to see this amazing spectacle changing for the worst. One of the most incredible experiences in nature and powerful way to communicate importance of top predators to the public. e360.yale.edu/features/shark… via @YaleE360

good advice/reminders wherever you live

We are very excited to welcome nearly 200 middle school girls to the Lab for Girls Exploring Science & Technology (GEST)! This is a fantastic opportunity for students to participate in hands-on STEM activities and learn about STEM careers.

@amandalbradford Thanks Amanda!

Great efforts going on in Honolulu this week to solve a very difficult bycatch problem between false killer whales and longline fisheries, thrilled to have a chance to present some of my research on the issue twitter.com/andyaread/stat…

Great job presenting guys! Bass Connections/DUML/Pod Squad(?)… instagram.com/p/BguIpOXFwrXE…
