🎃👻 1/6 Just in time for Halloween, I am excited to announce that my work with Richard Dearden and Thomas Near to produce a new, species-rich phylogeny of living and extinct chimaeras and ghost sharks is now published! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

New #GlobalSharkTrends analysis funded by Shark Conservation Fund serves as a #wakeupcall for urgent action to turn the tide for these extraordinary animals: bit.ly/GlobalSharkTre… 🧵2/20 #EndOverfishing #SustainableDevelopmentGoals

Ecological erosion and expanding extinction risk of sharks and rays buff.ly/49rZAKY " total shark and ray abundance has declined by half since 1970, and these declines have led to a loss of key ecological functions across marine ecosystems"

New study finds overfishing has halved shark and ray populations since 1970. The analysis published in Science Magazine reveals that overfishing has caused populations of sharks, rays, and chimaeras to decline by more than 50%. Learn more bit.ly/3Bb9moq IUCN SSC Shark Specialist Group

It is not about land erosion. It is about declining trend of Elasmobranch species in our ocean.

It is interesting how ChatGPT roasted #eDNA metabarcoding. 😊 I asked "Why metabarcoding is cool?" Ini sinister tone. And it aswered "Metabarcoding is like an engineering kid who always talks about data and coding, but suddenly appears and talks about biology". 😅😂 Whaat 😭

"F in Fisheries is stand for FISHERS" 🐟🐠🐡🦈 + 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 = FISHERIES . Artinya memadukan realitas ekonomi nelayan serta motivasi perlu dipahami lebih jauh untuk memastikan pengelolaan bisa efektif. Sulit? Tentu saja, karena manusia diciptakan kompleks dengan segala macam pertimbangan.

Kali ini kami mencoba memetakan interaksi nelayan dalam pemanfaatan SD pari kikir dan pari kekeh di TNP Karimunjawa. Ada peluang penerimaan nelayan untuk pemberlakuan pembatas ukuran minimun untuk dilepaskan kembali.

Hal ini dipengaruhi oleh nilai jual, tingkat pendidikan, jenis alat tangkap dan ada tidaknya pekerjaan sampingan. Skema kompensasi pelepasan kembali bisa ditawarkan dan dikaji kembali. Kamu ingin dimengerti, begitu pun juga mereka! . 🔗conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cs…

New Research: Population structure and genetic diversity of leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) in Bird’s Head Seascape, Papua-Indonesia frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #FrontiersIn #MarineScience

We found moderate genetic diversity and distinct population structures among leatherback turtles in the Bird’s Head Seascape - Indonesia, indicating limited gene flow between nesting sites. NOAA Research UNIPAlgeria BRIN Indonesia

These findings emphasize the need to protect multiple nesting areas to maintain genetic health and support effective conservation strategies.

The study recommends protecting multiple nesting sites within the BHS to preserve the genetic diversity and distinct subpopulations of leatherback turtles. Incorporating genetic data into conservation planning is necessary to ensure targeted and effective management.
