This paper provides an update of the study on habitat use for shortfin mako, developed within the ICCAT Shark Research and Data Collection Program (SRDCP). Currently, all phase 1 (2015-2016) tags (23 tags: 9 miniPATs and 14 sPAT) and 11 tags from phase 2 (2016-2018) have been deployed by observers on Portuguese, Uruguayan, Brazilian and US vessels in the temperate NE and NW, Equatorial and SW Atlantic. Data from 32 tags/specimens is available and a total of 1260 tracking days have been recorded. Results showed shortfin makos moved in multiple directions, travelling considerable distances. Shortfin mako sharks spent most of their time above the thermocline (0-90 m), between 18 and 22 °C. The main plan for the next phase of the project is to continue the tag deployment during 2018 in several regions of the Atlantic.
