Combined spatio-temporal impacts of climate and longline fisheries on the survival of a trans-equatorial marine migrant.

Predicting the impact of human activities and their derivable consequences, such as global warming or direct wildlife mortality, is increasingly relevant in our changing world. Due to their particular life history traits, long-lived migrants are amongst the most endangered and sensitive group of ani...
