An active research topic in marine biology is to discover and map the life cycles of various species and where they spend their time, an aspect which has been understandable thanks to GPS. Marine biologists study how the ocean currents, tides and many other oceanic factors affect ocean life forms, including their growth, distribution and well-being. This has only recently become technically feasible with advances in GPS and newer underwater visual devices. GPS trackers can provide marine biologists with crucial information related to the fishes' survival, and may help scientists better understand the severity of environmental pressures placed upon the fish by human interaction. Many people still wonder as to whether GPS tracking system technology be the key to scientists understanding the complexities of animal populations, or has the damage people have done and continue to do to the environment simply too much for these populations to sustain long-term? Hopefully the data gathered from the GPS tracking systems will help us comprehend the severity of the situation
