Multispecies tracking reveals a major seabird hotspot in the North Atlantic

2021

The conservation of migratory marine species, including pelagic seabirds, is challenging because their movements span vast distances frequently beyond national jurisdictions. Here, we aim to identify important aggregations of seabirds in the North Atlantic to inform ongoing regional conservation efforts. Using tracking, phenology, and population data, we mapped the abundance and diversity of 21 seabird species. This revealed a major hotspot associated with a discrete area of the subpolar frontal zone, used annually by 2.9–5 million seabirds from ≥56 colonies in the Atlantic: the first time this magnitude of seabird concentrations has been documented in the high seas. The hotspot is temporal…

Integrating fishing spatial patterns and strategies to improve high sea fisheries management

2018

Fishing activity in waters beyond national jurisdiction generates multiple management issues, such as data poor fisheries, management of straddling fish stocks and lack of impact assessments on deep-sea Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs). Fishing strategy is the key to understanding and managing high seas fisheries, targeting highly migratory resources that are widely distributed. An international fleet, including Spanish flag bottom trawlers, operates along the Patagonian shelf in Southwest Atlantic waters, which includes an unregulated strip of continental shelf beyond national jurisdiction. The Spanish fleet’s fishing strategy was analyzed, and based on on-board observer data collected …

Smuggling umanitario e scriminanti

2019

In questo articolo mi propongo di sottoporre a vaglio critico, da prospettiva penalistica, la retorica dello smuggling umanitario, utilizzata nei mesi scorsi da una parte dell’opinione pubblica per criminalizzare l’operato delle Ong attive nel Mar Mediterraneo nel salvataggio di migranti in distress. Più in particolare, cercherò di capire se regga, da un punto di vista giuridico-penale, la qualificazione di questo operato come « favoreggiamento dell’immigrazione clandestina » rilevante ai sensi dell’art. 12 Tuimm, o se non si diano invece le condizioni per considerarlo scriminato, o comunque penalmente lecito. Al termine del lavoro, indicherò quelle che, a mio avviso, costituiscono le ragio…
