Tagging Pacific Predators | KQED QUEST
It's easy to find them in a can, but the lives of tuna in the open ocean have been a mystery to scientists.
Thanks to a tagging program, Monterey Bay Area scientists are learning that these underwater sprinters travel thousands of miles around the Pacific. KQED's QUEST explores how scientists are working to discover even more about lives of sea turtles, sharks and other Pacific predators.

TOPP: Tagging of Pacific Predators
White sharks, elephant seals and bluefin tuna are among 23 marine species being tracked through the Tagging of Pacific Predators project. TOPP is led by a team of marine scientists, including Barbara Block, a professor of biology at Stanford's Hopkins Marine Station and senior fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment.

Barbara Block: Tagging tuna in the deep ocean
http://www.ted.com Tuna are ocean athletes -- fast, far-ranging predators whose habits we're just beginning to understand. Marine biologist Barbara Block fits tuna with tracking tags (complete with transponders) that record unprecedented amounts of data about these gorgeous, threatened fish and the ocean habitats they move through.

With the aid of modern technology, we reveal the unknown behaviour of some unusual species of sharks: lemon sharks and their white-tip reef counterparts. Our film trip begins on the Bahamas. To be more precise: in the turquoise-blue waters of the Grand Bahama Bank, in an exactly fixed location. In spring, 70 - 80 pregnant lemon sharks arrive here. This huge shark population was first discovered just a few years ago by shark researcher, Professor Sam Gruber. Many of the females are tired and rest on the seabed. Pregnant tiger sharks swim in the midst of this group. Without any protection whatsoever, our cameramen shoot ...

Conservation of Apex Predators
What are "apex predators" and why do we study them? Apex predators, like sharks, are predators at the top of the food chain. They're very important for the ecosystems where they live. NOAA Fisheries biologist Nancy Kohler and her team study the basic life history of these predators (food habits, reproduction, age and growth, migrations abundance) to ensure long-term sustainability of these species.

The secret lives of marine top predators: advances in biotelemetry link ecology & physiology
The secret lives of marine top predators: advances in biotelemetry link ecology and physiology to inform management
Dr. Danny Coffey
Abstract: Marine environments are a concealing medium, where observations of natural fish behavior are challenging. In particular, the geographic and depth distributions of migratory top predators are less understood. To overcome challenges associated with direct observation of behavior, the development of animal-borne electronic devices has allowed us to remotely observe the movements of top predators in a wide variety of habitats, leading to significant breakthroughs in our understanding of their ecology and physiology. Here, I discuss how advances in animal-borne tracking technologies have elucidated the ecosystem role, environmental preferences, and phy...

This huge shark population was first discovered just a few years ago by shark researcher, Professor Sam Gruber. Many of the females are tired and rest on the seabed. Pregnant tiger sharks swim in the midst of this group. Without any protection whatsoever, our cameramen shoot their footage, surrounded by sharks and succeed in capturing images hitherto unseen.
We continue our journey to Gainesville, Florida, to meet Gordon Hubbell, the leading shark denture expert with the world’s largest shark denture collection. He knows everything about the evolutionary history of the lemon sharks, in addition to those of the white-tip reef variety off Cocos Island, Costa Rica. Here, we encounter large schools of fish, unprecedented numbers of stingrays, as well as hammerhead sharks. However, it is the white-tip reek sharks that make the biggest impression. Their performance begins late at night. Marauding, they patrol in large groups through the reefs and hunt everything that moves. Scales and dead prey fish float above the reef - a welcoming change of diet for the ubiquitous barracudas.

To overcome challenges associated with direct observation of behavior, the development of animal-borne electronic devices has allowed us to remotely observe the movements of top predators in a wide variety of habitats, leading to significant breakthroughs in our understanding of their ecology and physiology. Here, I discuss how advances in animal-borne tracking technologies have elucidated the ecosystem role, environmental preferences, and physiological capabilities of top predators across diverse habitats. Novel research approaches enabled in situ natural experiments linking behavioral and environmental observations for an elusive top predator in the largest, relatively unexplored, ecosystem on Earth – the deep sea. Approaching research questions from a physiological ecological framework further provided a mechanistic basis to project climate change effects on this deepwater species. Collectively, these results provide surprising new insights for top predators and foster improved management and conservation strategies.
Biography: Dr. Danny Coffey is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. Before joining Harte Research Institute, he was at the Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology where he earned his Ph.D. from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. Danny has also conducted research at the Tuna Research and Conservation Center, a collaboration between Stanford University’s Hopkins Marine Station and The Monterey Bay Aquarium, and earned his M.Sc. from Lund University. His research uses telemetry and biologging technologies as tools to monitor the movement and behavior of elasmobranchs and fishes across different spatial and temporal scales. This information is used to investigate the underlying ecological and physiological drivers of habitat use that are informative for managing and conserving marine resources.
