  abstract = {{T}ropical tuna purse-seine fishing vessels contribute to abandoned, lost or discarded ({ALD}) fishing equipment by deploying large numbers of drifting {F}ish {A}ggregating {D}evices (d{FAD}s). {H}ere we analysed more than 80,000 d{FAD} trajectories (56,263 tracking buoys) in the {I}ndian and {A}tlantic oceans from 2012 to 2018. {W}e found that more than 40% of d{FAD} trajectories ultimately drifted away from fishing grounds, becoming {ALD}. {A}bout 20% of these lost d{FAD}s passed within 50 km of major ports, indicating that port-based programmes could be effective in collecting {ALD} d{FAD}s at sea. {W}e also identified areas within the fishing grounds where most d{FAD}s exit and where high-seas recovery could be valuable. {F}or example, most d{FAD}s leaving {I}ndian {O}cean fishing grounds along their eastern border at similar to 70 degrees {E}, particularly in {O}ctober-{D}ecember, do not return to fishing grounds. {D}espite considerable logistical challenges, at-sea d{FAD} recovery offers promising options for reducing the ecological footprints of purse-seine fisheries.},
