🚨 1/2: A new study out today in Science Advances maps the overlap between fishing vessel activity and the distribution of top marine predators in the northeast Pacific Ocean, illuminating the hidden risk of unseen fishing vessel activity due to gaps in #AIS data.

Publicly tracked fishing vessels often go dark.

In our new paper in Science Advances, we find dark vessels are responsible for nearly a quarter of human-wildlife risk in the northeast Pacific.
