Shark Net - Predators of the Blue Serengeti 1.3
Free Version
Publisher Description
Shark Net gives you a deep look into research being done by Stanford University scientists and the worldwide collaborative research of GTOPP - the Global Tagging of Pacific Predators project (http://www.gtopp.org). Shark Net allows you to connect directly with one of the most amazing predators on the planet white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias), which return every year to the Gulf of the Farallones and Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuaries along the California coastline. White sharks are apex predators in our coastal and open ocean ecosystems. Using electronic tags attached to these sharks, you will follow when individuals pass by strategically-placed underwater acoustic listening stations that are satellite uplinked in coastal locations. This technology provides the capacity for real-time uplinks from a shark within 5 minutes of its detection. We also have mobile Wave Gliders cruising the ocean waters, and when a tagged white shark swims past, the detections are sent to the app. Support Shark Research and Get an Exclusive Shark Card Shark Net is free for everyone, but you can support the research behind Shark Net by adding a message to the Pledge Wall!
