We are thrilled to announce that CV for Ecology Workshop is returning for its second year at #ICCV2025 in Honolulu, Hawaii! If your work combines computer vision and ecology, submit a paper and join us!

Deadlines: July 4 (Proceedings) / July 22 (Non-Archival)

Very interesting experience last week in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia- worked with colleagues from @KAUST and @NCW_center to help deliver demonstration #CSIOfTheSea examinations and take part in a workshop on strandings response and investigation.

Our new preprint “Opportunities to enhance conservation success for sharks” is out.

While we await reviews please feel free to add your thoughts, we would love to hear them.

New #GlobalSharkTrends study published in @ScienceMagazine reveals that #overfishing has more than halved shark & ray populations over the past 50-years causing widespread erosion of ecological function and exceptionally high extinction risk

The wave of rising shark and ray extinction risk #GlobalSharkTrends
👉 started in rivers, estuaries, and nearshore coastal waters
👉 before rapidly expanding out across the oceans.
Lower risk only in harder-to-fish nearshore habitats, such as
👉 Kelp/algal reefs
👉 Rocky reefs, and
👉 deepsea

[Nicholas Dulvy @NickDulvy]

Researchers highlight troubling dark spots where shark & ray biodiversity is plummeting, w/
👉 steep declines in RLI
👉 high richness & endemicity:
1. Japan–Taiwan
2. Indonesia to New Guinea
3. India & Bay of Bengal
4. Western Indian Ocean
5. SW Atlantic
6. Galapagos & SE Pacific
7. Gulf of California
