Citizen science reveals a geographic mosaic of trumpetfish shadowing behaviour in the Caribbean Sea
<p>Citizen science is often used to assess the distribution and abundance of species, but it can be extended to identify the occurrence of different animal behaviours, generating hypotheses for the fields of behavioural ecology, conservation, and evolutionary biology. Here we use a targeted citizen science approach to map the prevalence and spatial spread of a fish's unusual hunting strategy across the Caribbean Sea. Using a standardised questionnaire targeting regular scuba divers, we quantified the occurrence of a behaviour termed 'shadowing', where West Atlantic trumpetfish (<i>Aulostomatus maculeatus</i>) swim behind or next to another 'host' species when hunting prey. While the vast majority of participants observed trumpetfish on nearly every dive, using spatial analyses, we found the frequency of shadowing behaviour was geographically clustered within the Caribbean, particularly to within ~100 km ranges. Our survey also highlighted that shadowing behaviour was more likely to occur in particular habitat types, and with particular host species, suggesting potential mechanisms for such clustering. Our results not only identify a mosaic of different hunting behaviours across thousands of square kilometres, but more generally, demonstrates the power of using citizen science to investigate behaviours over spatial scales that would otherwise be unfeasible.</p>
SWOT Sword of Science River Discharge Products Version 1
The SWOT Sword of Science River Discharge Products dataset from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission and produced by the Discharge Algorithm Working Group (DAWG), provides estimates of river discharge derived from the SWOT Level 2 River Single-Pass Vector Data Product, and includes both unconstrained and gauge constrained estimates that leverage in-situ measurements. The SWOT mission is implemented jointly by NASA and Centre National D'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) to provide valuable data and information about the world's oceans and its terrestrial surface water such as lakes, rivers, and wetlands.Sword of Science data products are generated from the open-source SWOT Confluence program and contain river discharge parameter estimates as well as discharge time series for both river reaches and river nodes, following the SWOT River Database (SWORD) structure. Granules from both constrained and unconstrained branches are composed of prior information (e.g., mean annual flow predicted by global hydrological models) and the resulting discharge estimates. Priors and results files for both constrained and unconstrained branches are available in netCDF format. Users are encouraged to reference the SWOT Confluence documentation and notebook tutorials for full documentation of the data structure and variables available.Development of the SWOT Confluence program as well as the Sword of Science data products was funded by NASA’s Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST) program.
