📢 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

@romaricjac.bsky.social will explore what otolith chemistry can reveal about capelin migrations. 🗣️Big moment for me in my final PhD year! I’m excited to present all my results, connect with others working on cold-water small pelagic fish, exchange ideas, & discover new projects & innovative methods.

Small pelagic fish experts have gathered in La Paz, Mexico, to talk all things herring, capelin, sardine, mackerel & more at the 3rd Small Pelagic Fish symposium-SPF2026! We're proud to present some of the early-career scientists we have funded to be at SPF-2026👇 @fao.org @picesmarinesci.bsky.social

New research from @romaricjac.bsky.social et al show that deep-water cartilaginous fishes, along with some of their prey species, are expanding their ranges northward into Arctic regions, highlighting how climate change may reshape marine biodiversity and species distributions. plos.io/4sYteQX

Climate-driven shifts aren't just happening at the surface. Using 26 years of data, we show that deep-water sharks and chimaeras are moving northward into Arctic waters🦈 Their prey are moving too, suggesting that the entire deep-sea community is on the move. Read it here👉 doi.org/10.1371/jour...

We’ve completed our second season with chimaera tagging! And we caught something very cool 👀🦈 Curious about what? Find out here www.bergentelemetry.com/post/trackin... #SOSF_GhostTrack #NFR_PUFFINS

Excited to share our first paper on capelin otolith chemistry in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. We reveal stable, region-specific signatures over time, a key first step toward tracking natal origins and migrations. Many exciting questions ahead! Read here 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My first PhD paper is published! We did a co-occurrence network analysis of tagged spiny dogfish in the fjords 🦈 Read it here: doi.org/10.1093/ices... @bergentelemetry.bsky.social #SqualusAcanthias #Spurdog

New #OA paper in Ecological Informatics comparing automated methods for provenance assignment using chronological chemical records deposited into archival structures such as #otoliths, #lenses, #statoliths. Our focus was on #salmon but it has much broader application. doi.org/10.1016/j.ec...

Wohoo! Another two chimaera monstrosa tagged tonight 🤩 The coloration is beautiful! Thanks to @saveourseas.bsky.social for funding the #SOSF_GhostTrack project! We’re going out again tomorrow! @bergentelemetry.bsky.social

We are hiring: #PhD fellow in Ecosystem-based management and marine connectivity🐋🧪🛰️ Want to work with tracking data from migratory species to identify ecological corridors and help inform biodiversity conservation priorities? Apply by Dec 7th! @bioprotectproject.bsky.social tinyurl.com/ytfmfhfc

Curious about how to study forage fishes (in Canada)? 🐟 Our new paper reviews current approaches, identifies key knowledge gaps, and offers advice on methods to address them. Read it here 👉 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Hard to believe it has been over 10 years since I discovered this NEW SPECIES of ghost shark during #AlienShark on @SharkWeek. I named the species the SeaFarer’s Ghost Shark (Chimaera willwatchi) for my hard working friends onboard the fishing vessel Will Watch. 🤩🦈

Our Special Issue on fish telemetry is finally published in Journal of Fish Biology @thefsbi.bsky.social including 28 papers on freshwater & marine fish movement & behaviour. Thank all authors and guest editors Taryn Murray, Robert Lennox & Kim Birnie-Gauvin onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/10958649...

I've waited a decade to finally have the chance to work with this ghost #shark 👻🦈 legend. While we were geeking away on this giant beast, we also got word that the first and only Ghost Sharks of the World book finally has a released date. Coming to you January 2026!

#BaskingSharks of the #ArticCircle 📢Tracking the second largest #fish for a full year, our new paper invites you on a deep #dive into the life of a cold water giant between the Barents Sea and the Azores 🐟❄️🌊🏝️🇳🇴 #sharkscience #IMR @forskning.no @aquatictracking.bsky.social 🧵 1/4 🚨 rdcu.be/elqvS

Meet Lotte, a recipient of our Keystone Grant. We look forward to following along as Lotte will use acoustic telemetry to complete the first advanced tracking study of chimaeras. More info here: saveourseas.com/project/the-... #SOSF2025Projects #saveourseasfoundation #chimaeras

Super eager about leading my first tracking project!! Huge thanks to @saveourseas.bsky.social for funding our #SASF_GhostTrack project!! Can’t wait to see what the data will look like 🦈

New paper out! An analysis of recent advances and challenges in tag miniaturization. I had a good time drawing Figure 3 (see below). Small things can help ensure the tagged animals recover fully!

Excited to have contributed to this study where we tracked 29 sperm whales in the North Atlantic! 🐳 Some traveled nearly 8000km and dove deeper then 1000m! 🛰️🌊 www.nature.com/articles/s41... This is one of my favorite photos taken during this fieldwork of a 🐳 diving under the midnight sun 🌞

What a fantastic way to kick off the year! Thrilled to have contributed to this paper on spurdog movement and habitat use in Norway 🦈 Read more: doi.org/10.1111/jfb....
