Bycatch risk assessment of the Laysan albatross in the Mexican Pacific

Year: 2026

Type: software

Abstract: Code and manuscript sources for the assessment of Laysan albatross (Phoebastria immutabilis) core foraging areas in the Mexican Pacific and their overlap with Mexican marine protected areas. The R pipeline processes GPS tracking data from the Guadalupe, Clarion and San Benedicto colonies (2014–2026), delineates the core area and computes the protected-area overlap index. It also builds the bycatch-risk maps that relate albatross space use to longline and trawler fishing effort. The code rebuilds every figure and table from the raw data.
