So proud of calling you my colleague and friend! @UmairUshahid A lot more work to do together in the future!
Umair Shahid leads @WWF's tuna #fisheries work in the #IndianOcean to protect marine species from a range of threats. Learn more about his work with local fishers to reduce bycatch including some exciting new #research on #solutions https://wwfwhales.org/news-stories/fishing-for-the-future @WWFPak @ecology_lab
IWC Bycatch Expert Panel members @jjkiszka @UmairUshahid new paper in #AquaticConservation shows 79% reduction in #cetaceanbycatch using subsurface gillnets rather than surface. BMI discussing scope for further trials @wwfPak #IOTC. Collaboration is key!
Setting the net lower: A potential lowâcost mitigation method to reduce cetacean bycatch in drift gillnet fisheries
Bycatch is the most significant threat to marine megafauna (sea turtles, marine mammals, elasmobranchs, seabirds) worldwide, and the leading cause of ...

So excited to share our latest paper published today in #AquaticConservation on cetacean bycatch mitigation in drift gillnets in the Indian Ocean. Our study reveals that subsurface settings reduce cetacean bycatch probability by nearly 80% @WWFPak https://t.co/tJJa6nic0L
“Patience and adaptability are the keys to a career in #science. There is no such thing as too late or too old for this job,” @FIU whale researcher and Ph.D. student Enrico Corsi tells @whalescientists. #WordsToLiveBy #STEM #whales @ecology_lab #PawsUp #SDG14 https://twitter.com/whalescientists/status/1438930418817015813
Meet Enrico Corsi, currently doing his PhD with @jjkiszka from @FIU in collaboration with @CascadiaRes. Enrico works on the socioecology of toothed whales in Hawaii via a technique called social network analysis. https://whalescientists.com/whale-scientists-story-enrico-corsi/
Happy to have you with us Enrico! Very excited to also collaborate with @CascadiaRes on this project

Another great day in Biscayne bay to study bottlenose dolphins and their prey! Photos taken under NOAA permit
The dolphins in #BiscayneBay are an important piece when it comes to understanding the bay as a whole 🌊
@jjkiszka & the @ecology_lab are studying these amazing creatures to see what we may be able to uncover 🐬💙
Watch @LOUISAGUIRRE @ 5:30PM on @WPLGLocal10 for the full story! https://twitter.com/LOUISAGUIRRE/status/1438201593254514693

There are 150 dolphins living in #BiscayneBay but scientists don’t really know how well the population is doing. @fiuenvironment is part of the ongoing mission to collect important data. Never more urgent bc of the declining health of the bay. 2nite @WPLGLocal10 530pm @jjkiszka
RT @CascadiaRes: New paper out on #killer #whale predatory scarring rates on mysticetes off the US West Coast led by Enrico Corsi (now PhD student @ecology_lab!) Congrats Enrico, and link to the paper: https://buff.ly/3msVE6t https://buff.ly/3gwLVIF

My amazing crew rocking this field season in Saint Pierre et Miquelon with lots of whales, biopsies and prey data collected. 10 more days to go and satellite tags to deploy! Hopefully lots of killer whales soon… @ecology_lab @FIUEnvironment @FIU_CCRL
