Abstract

Martina Lonati explored the use of new technologies in shark and ray research. She developed an artificial intelligence protocol to improved photographic identification, and piloted underwater operated vehicles for nocturnal and deep-water surveys. Her findings offer researchers a practical example of incorporating innovation into traditional methods.
