UCSB uses AI to track rising great white shark numbers off Santa Barbara
Original: As ocean temperatures rise, UCSB tracks Santa Barbara’s great white sharks with AI
Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara are using artificial intelligence to monitor great white sharks gathering off the Santa Barbara coast as ocean temperatures rise. The warming waters are drawing more juvenile sharks to the area, and the tracking work aims to understand their movements and what the shift means for beachgoers and the local marine ecosystem.
Why now: Warming oceans are pushing more great white sharks into populated coastal waters, raising public interest in safety and marine research.
