Why is this work important for #marineconservation ? It provides new knowledge that can support conservation action at country-level and Atlantic-scale, including through #marinespatialplanning.

We : 👉 Identify important areas of the ocean that deserve #conservation attention. 👉 Show that national and international waters are equally important for highly mobile seabirds. 👉Show that these species remain poorly covered by Marine Protected Areas ( #MPA ).

🪶 #Seabirds can cross entire #ocean basins every year. Because of these long-distance movements, protecting them can be challenging and we need to understand what are important places for them. To do so, we compiled an important #tracking dataset to map their spatial distribution in the #Atlantic.

🚨New Open Access Paper🚨 Using the marine flyways concept to accelerate ocean conservation published in @jappliedecology.bsky.social OA paper➡️ doi.org/10.1111/1365... #BLScience #seabirds 1/4

An infographic showing a world map in the Spilhaus projection, with the six marine flyways (Altantic Ocean, North Indian Ocean, East Indian Ocean, West Pacific Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Southern Ocean). Text reads: 'Marine flyways are the major routes migratory seabirds regularly use to travel between their breeding and non-breeidng areas.'

We demonstrate the potential of marine flyways and support the adoption of the Resolution on Seabirds and Marine Flyways next week at the 15th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species and Wild Animals #CMS in🌎Brazil 📅March 2026 @cms.int 3/4

Graphical abstract from the paper. Figure shows two maps of the world (one centred in the Atlantic, the other in the Pacific) with the six marine flyways, and countries EEZs that overlap the flyways colours by CMS Party Status.

Text summarises the key points of the paper:
'Global flyways are the broad routes migratory species travel between their breeding and non-breeding ranges, and as a framework they have improved conservation outcomes for migratory species.
Impementing the marine flyways framework could foster synergies across multilateral environmental agreements to deliver tangible benefits for marine conservation.
We demonstrate the feasibility and potential of marine flyways to support the adoption of the Resolution on Seabirds and Marine Flyways at CMS COP15 and subsequently its implementation to contribute to strengthened international cooperation for marine conservation.'
