  abstract = {{I}n spite of its pivotal role in future implementations of the {E}cosystem {A}pproach to {F}isheries {M}anagement, current knowledge about tuna habitat preferences remains fragmented and heterogeneous, because it relies mainly on regional or local studies that have used a variety of approaches making them difficult to combine. {T}herefore in this study we analyse data from six tuna species in the {P}acific, {A}tlantic and {I}ndian {O}ceans in order to provide a global, comparative perspective of habitat preferences. {T}hese data are longline catch per unit effort from 1958 to 2007 for albacore, {A}tlantic bluefin, southern bluefin, bigeye, yellowfin and skipjack tunas. {B}oth quotient analysis and {G}eneralised {A}dditive {M}odels were used to determine habitat preference with respect to eight biotic and abiotic variables. {R}esults confirmed that, compared to temperate tunas, tropical tunas prefer warm, anoxic, stratified waters. {A}tlantic and southern bluefin tuna prefer higher concentrations of chlorophyll than the rest. {T}he two species also tolerate most extreme sea surface height anomalies and highest mixed layer depths. {I}n general, {A}tlantic bluefin tuna tolerates the widest range of environmental conditions. {A}n assessment of the most important variables determining fish habitat is also provided.},
