Extended Data Table 2 Examples of global and regional drivers of FEI hotspots for individual shark species

From: Reply to: Shark mortality cannot be assessed by fishery overlap alone

  1. Values given in the first four columns are the percentages of grid cells of shark hotspots (>75th percentile of relative density) and/or high fishing effort (>50th percentile of mean fishing days) that contribute to FEI hotspots (>75th percentile of mean monthly FEI). The last two columns show the percentage of FEI hotspots that overlap shark hotspots and high fishing effort hotspots. Blue, blue shark (Prionace glauca); white, white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). No blue sharks were tracked in the southwest Indian Ocean.
