📢 New IMR study on movement patterns of #BaskingSharks shows that sharks tagged above the #ArcticCircle in #Norway perform repeated large-scale movements to subtropical waters and actively use the water column across habitats.🧵 1/5 👉 doi.org/10.3354/meps... @whoi.edu @thembauk.bsky.social
Map of the showing seasonal shark migration routes in the Northeast Atlantic. Sharks move to the Norwegian and Barents Seas in summer (May–July), the Icelandic Basin in autumn (September–December), and the Western European Basin in winter (January–March). Colored arrows indicate migration paths of the sharks illustrated as black silhouettes.

📢 New IMR research reveals alarming effects of overfishing on herring 🐟 Age-selective fisheries caused an 800-km poleward shift in spawning, disrupting collective memory and migration patterns. #FishMigration #FisheriesManagement www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.hi.no/hi/nyheter/2...
