Ecological risk assessment of pelagic sharks caught in Atlantic pelagic longline fisheries
Enric Cortés,Freddy Arocha,Lawrence R. Beerkircher,Felipe Carvalho,Andrés Domingo,Michelle R. Heupel,Hannes Holtzhausen,Miguel N. Santos,Marta Ribera,Colin A. Simpfendorfer +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that most species of pelagic sharks have low productivities and varying levels of susceptibility to pelagic longline gear, and pelagic Sharks are particularly vulnerable to pelotic longline fisheries mostly as a result of their limited productivity.

Philine S. E. zu Ermgassen,Bryan M. DeAngelis,Jonathan R. Gair,Sophus O. S. E. zu Ermgassen,Ronald Baker,Andre Daniels,Timothy C. MacDonald,Kara Meckley,Sean P. Powers,Marta Ribera,Lawrence P. Rozas,Jonathan H. Grabowski +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the densities of young-of-year fish and invertebrates in seagrasses, oyster reefs, and salt marsh edges as well as in paired adjacent unstructured habitats of the northern Gulf of Mexico.
Modeling Coastal and Marine Environmental Risks in Belize: the Marine Integrated Decision Analysis System (MIDAS)
Sucharita Gopal,Les Kaufman,Valerie J. Pasquarella,Marta Ribera,Christopher E. Holden,Burton V. Shank,Pitts Joshua +6 more
TL;DR: The Marine Integrated Decision Analysis System (MIDAS) as discussed by the authors is an interactive decision support tool designed to assist the users and managers of Belize's system of marine management areas (MMAs) in understanding the interactions among various ecological, socioeconomic, and governance conditions in a spatially explicit manner.

MIDAS: A Spatial Decision Support System for Monitoring Marine Management Areas
Hrishikesh P Patel,Sucharita Gopal,Les Kaufman,Matt Carleton,Christopher E. Holden,Valerie J. Pasquarella,Marta Ribera,Burton V. Shank +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the design and implementation of a Marine Integrated Decision Analysis System (MIDAS), a spatial decision support system (SDSS), which allows users to select values for a set of actions.

Habitat use and movement patterns of bull sharks Carcharhinus leucas determined using pop-up satellite archival tags
TL;DR: While some individuals made large-scale movements over open ocean areas, the results emphasize the importance of the coastal zone for this species as potential essential habitat, particularly in areas of high freshwater inflow.
