Remarks | Baited camera set ups were deployed to identify and observe Somniosus microcephalus in different localities. Local abundance estimates were calculated using the first arrival time, shark swimming speed, and current velocity (Ref. 124461). Camera deployments were conducted in August 21, 2015 - September 9, 2015 and July 26, 2016 - September 23, 2016. |
