Offshore wind energy development is growing quickly around the world. In southern New England, USA, one of largest commercial offshore farms in USA will be established waters off Massachusetts and Rhode Island, an area used by Critically Endangered North Atlantic right whale Eubalaena glacialis . Prior to 2011, little was known about use this whales. We examined aerial survey data collected between 2011-2015 2017-2019 quantify distribution, residency, demography, movements region. Right...
Climate change is affecting species distributions in space and time. In the Gulf of Maine, one fastest-warming marine regions on Earth, rapid warming has caused prey-related changes distribution critically endangered North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena glacialis). Concurrently, whales have returned to historically important areas such as southern New England shelf waters, an area known been a whaling ground. We compared aerial survey data from two time periods (2013-2015; 2017-2019) assess...
The Critically Endangered North Atlantic right whale Eubalaena glacialis entered a population decline around 2011. To save this species without closing the ocean to human activities requires detailed information about its intra-annual density patterns that can be used assess and mitigate human-caused risks. Using 2.9 million km of visual line-transect survey effort from US Canadian Maritimes conducted in 2003-2020 by 11 institutions, we modeled absolute (ind. -2 ) using spatial, temporal,...
Cetorhinus maximus aggregations recorded during extensive aerial survey efforts off the north‐eastern United States between 1980 and 2013 included centring on sightings with group sizes of at least 30 individuals. These occurred in summer autumn months aggregation up to 1398 individuals, largest ever reported for this species. The were associated sea surface temperatures 13–24° C chlorophyll‐a concentrations 0·4–2·6 mg m −3 one aggregation, a high abundance zooplankton prey was present....
Abstract Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are a widely‐used tool for conserving biodiversity. Features that support marine mammal foraging have been suggested as important components to include in MPAs, but research is needed understand the relationship between these features and diversity. For example, Northeast Canyons Seamounts National Monument represents an area known was designated protect of high However, no comparisons made diversity other areas. We used 3,174,167 km survey effort...
One of today’s greatest conservation challenges is balancing policies, laws, and management strategies established to achieve economic goals that depend on extracting ocean resources with those conserve marine biodiversity. We use the Northeast Canyons Seamounts Marine National Monument (NCSM) as a case study explore consequences changing from policy prevents fishing fisheries policy. found opening NCSM commercial reduces species protections. Fishing pelagic bottom tending fixed gear exposes...
