Everyone agrees that long-term monitoring is needed to assess harbor seal counts but in certain areas of the world like tidewater glacier fjords, it proves difficult. A recent study worked to calibrate data between shore-based counts and aerial surveys to provide more precise population estimates...

Check out this paper that collates all the data from tagged swordfish in the Eastern North Pacific to provide information for stock boundaries. They found that swordfish movements do not follow current boundaries, trans-equatorial movements are limited, and movements are confined to an area east...

Trying to figure out how to preserve and increase salmon populations in the Pacific Northwest is increasing in priority. A recent report sent to Long Live the Kings, Salish Sea Marine Survival Project, studied the influence of artificial light and resident Coho and Chinook on...

Researchers set out to better understand the spatial ecology of the ringed seal. They deployed Wildlife Computers SPLASH tags on 39 seals. These data provided a glimpse into ringed seal movements and foraging behavior during mid-and late-summer…something that was previously under-studied. The Ringed seals stayed...

Wildlife Computers SPOT tags were used on bottlenose dolphins in the Indian River Lagoon. The study provided a detailed look at the nocturnal movements and habitat use including foraging strategies, feeding events, and range size. This study shows the role that satellite telemetry plays in...

Rees et al (2020) used Wildlife Computers SPOT tags to track 21 female Loggerhead turtles in Greece. Their results confirm the benefit of using tracking technologies to determine Clutch Frequency estimates for marine turtles. Consequently, these benefits also allow for better population estimates and highlight...
