Understanding Migratory Patterns of Yellowfin Tuna in the Sea of Cortez for the Successful Preservation and Protection of the Marine Environment with Emma Herron Jessup Sciences

This podcast outlines the various methods in which marine biologists have come to study the ecology of migratory pelagic fish. It seeks to highlight past studies of yellowfin tuna in the Gulf of California, and places a special interest on the marine research methods in which scientists are able to study highly migratory pelagic species. In the end it speaks to the importance of knowledge when it comes to the creation and support of marine management and conservation techniques. Although, tuna may not be directly important to everyone, it is important we are informed on a variety of ecological issues as we seek to be wise, and environmentally conscious decision makers for the good of the ocean and earth.
