5. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

We acknowledge Dr. David Curnick for helping us with the variable extractions and the BIOT administration for support and access to the BIOT patrol vessel. We are gratefully to the Master, Chief engineer, and crew of the BIOT patrol vessels for their hard work and assistance. T.B.L. was supported by the Marine Biodiversity Hub through the Australian Government’s National Environmental Research Program (NERP). We would like to acknowledge the support of the Bertarelli Foundation for funding field expeditions in 2015, 2016, and 2017 and for supporting T.B.L, P.C. and H.K. This work contributes to the Bertarelli Programme in Marine Science.
