Fisheries scientist @GlobalFishWatch interested in sustainable fishing and shark + tuna conservation

[Tim White @timD_white]

Our new study: how do fisheries respond to large MPAs? We used @GlobalFishWatch data to track fisheries before/after the creation of 5 large MPAs, & compared patterns with nearby waters that allowed fishing.

We’re pleased to announce that @RMI_Govt has become the first Pacific island nation to commit to sharing its fishing activity data on the @GlobalFishWatch map! “Cooperation and collaboration is key” Hon Min. Silk. #OurOceanPalau @OurOceanPalau @BloombergDotOrg

@OurOceanPalau friends, We'll be starting in a few!

Wondering about #AI powered technologies potential to tip the scales in the long fight against IUU fishing?

Join @Fay_AtlanSpace ,@timD_white , Paolo Roberto Domondon and @tedschmitt now at side event room 8!

1st panel & two images of our open data being used! Thank you @rickspinradnoaa @Enric_Sala @anthawilliams Big TY @BloombergDotOrg for making our platform available to all for free, for research and for ocean insights! @OurOceanPalau #OurOceanPalau https://t.co/SVwOQB7BOK

[TonyLong-CEO-GFW @darkbluebloke]

We’re delighted that @GlobalFishWatch is contributing to #OurOceanPalau participating in two side events, a youth leadership discussion and developing new partnerships in plenary. I am glad to have seen some of Palau including Jellyfish Lake! Follow events https://t.co/blKJQ6MKLn

More tidbits in the thread below (1/4)

[Tim White @timD_white]

@GlobalFishWatch We recently studied how MPAs change fishing patterns. The @GlobalFishWatch marine manager portal lets anyone do that same analysis (w/AIS) for any country, MPA, policy, etc in a few clicks. Fun seeing a study that took us months to do, now take minutes!

[Tim White @timD_white]

Wondering how fishing patterns changed after a MPA was created, or where COVID-19 impacts were felt, or if fishing in changing in waters near you? You can now map and plot those changes with a few clicks on the @GlobalFishWatch marine manager portal!

[Global Fishing Watch @GlobalFishWatch]

We have updated our marine manager portal! A technology portal that helps improve insight into marine protected areas. Researchers can compare levels of human activity over time to better fathom human behavior & management impacts on marine ecosystems.

@PhilRhodTaylor @MarineBioMatt @MovebankTeam @ShafferAvian @MarineBioMatt seconding this! exactly how I'd answer

[Tim White @timD_white]

We're searching for someone interested in fisheries, MPAs, and emerging tech to join @GlobalFishWatch! A great chance to use tech + science to help monitor our oceans, in direct partnership with govts and researchers

[Global Fishing Watch @GlobalFishWatch]

We're hiring! Looking for a fisheries analyst to help improve the monitoring and analysis of marine protected areas throughout the world. Learn more and apply: #remotework #jobopportunity https://t.co/3KJv746oh5

@GQuinnn yesss way more than the slightest bit of joy homie. The world still needs more Kevin - hope he's doin good

[Global Fishing Watch @GlobalFishWatch]

Three years ago today, we published the first high-resolution footprint of global fishing activity in @ScienceMagazine. Since then, our fishing activity data has been used to support hundreds of studies. Learn more: https://t.co/4yNhFNBvyX

[#womeninscienceday] @HannahSeas, our senior manager for data and analysis, applies #datascience to analyze global #transshipment activity and make it visible to the public via our carrier vessel portal: https://t.co/J2rq1J9bkS

[Global Fishing Watch @GlobalFishWatch]

[#womeninscienceday] We’re working with @Heather_M_Welch of @NOAAFisheries to better understand potential drivers of suspicious fishing behaviors. Learn more about Heather’s research: https://t.co/g2bbR35UFp
