Balancing marine species conservation with cost-effective renewable energy development

Laura C. Ganley, Jessica V. Redfern, Orfhlaith O'Brien, Daniel E. Pendleton et autres

Climate change is necessitating renewable energy development while contributing to shifting wildlife phenology and distribution. Renewable energy may require anthropogenic activity and wildlife to co-occur. Here we develop a framework to identify trade-offs between financial costs to developers and conservation, considering the …

Models Incorporating Non‐Stationarity Improve Detection of Climate‐Driven Range Shifts in Odontocetes

Nathan O. Hirtle, Jason J. Roberts, Jessica V. Redfern, Elliott Lee Hazen et autres

ABSTRACT Aim Climate change is causing distributional shifts in many species globally. Identifying and anticipating these shifts is critical to understanding ecosystem impacts and implementing successful management strategies. Species distribution models ( SDMs ) are useful tools often employed to describe current …

Extralimital sightings of a gray whale in the western North Atlantic

Orfhlaith O'Brien, Katherine Laemmle, Katherine R McKenna, Sharon Hsu et autres

Gray whales Eschrichtius robustus are High Arctic migrants that primarily inhabit the North Pacific Ocean. Gray whales have been extirpated from the North Atlantic Ocean since at least the middle of the 18th century. However, in the past 15 yr, there have …

North Atlantic right whale density surface model for the US Atlantic evaluated with passive acoustic monitoring

JJ Roberts, TM Yack, E Fujioka, PN Halpin et autres

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 to assess and mitigate …

Repatriation of a historical North Atlantic right whale habitat during an era of rapid climate change

Orfhlaith O'Brien, Daniel E. Pendleton, Laura C. Ganley, Katherine R McKenna et autres

Abstract Climate change is affecting species distributions in space and time. In the Gulf of Maine, one of the fastest-warming marine regions on Earth, rapid warming has caused prey-related changes in the distribution of the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena …

Identifying predictors of species diversity to guide designation of marine protected areas

Brooke C. Hodge, Daniel E. Pendleton, Laura C. Ganley, Orfhlaith O'Brien et autres

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 to understand the relationship between these features and diversity. For …

Opening a Marine Monument to Commercial Fishing Compromises Species Protections

Jessica V. Redfern, Kelly A Kryc, Lena Weiss, Brooke C. Hodge et autres

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 established to conserve marine biodiversity. We use the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument (NCSM) …
