Last month the
first Inter-Research Symposium "Tracking Marine Vertebrates for
Conservation" was held as part of the International Sea
Turtle
Symposium. Talks included those on large pelagic fish, turtles,
seabirds, seals and great whales. Papers presented will form part of special
issue on
"Tracking Vertebrates for Conservation" to be published
before the end of 2007. Additional submitted manuscripts on marine mammals,
turtles and fish have already arrived for consideration for what
promises to be a pivotal publication.
Note:
1.. this is an open call for
submitted manuscripts.
2.. there has been interest from
terrestrial as well as marine workers and I would stress that we are open to
contributions on all taxa.
3.. that all accepted contributions will be
published online and open-access and thus extremely high impact is
assured
