Transparency in Focus: Seabirds - Sentinels of the Sea

Seabirds: Sentinels of the Sea shows how fishing data transparency is unlocking new opportunities for scientific research and innovative uses of the Global Fishing Watch map. By combining seabird tracking data with vessel activity, scientists can monitor fishing operations, detect potential illegal activity, and assess the effectiveness of management measures. In Peru, researchers are following the movements of seabirds—natural sentinels of the ocean—to gain valuable insights into human activity at sea, helping protect marine ecosystems and promote sustainable fisheries.
