Figure 1

Distribution of tagged salmon sharks in the eastern North Pacific (NEP). (a) Positions of tagged sharks that provided usable data (n = 65) coloured by major ecoregions of the NEP: Alaska Coastal Downwelling (blue), Subarctic Gyre (cyan), North Pacific Transition Zone (yellow), Subtropical Gyre (red) and California Current (green). (b) Individual tracks of three sharks for which PAT tags were recovered (LD51, LD59, LD90). Circles indicate daily mean Bayesian state-space model position estimates and white diamonds indicate pop-up locations of PAT tags. Only positions that overlap temporally with PAT records are shown. Map was created using ArcGIS 10.2 (ESRI Inc., Redland, CA, USA, http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/).
