Ocean warming can induce physiological and behavioural effects in marine predators that
can cascade through ecosystems. A lack of understanding of the effects of elevated …

Coastal sharks can use shallow, nearshore habitats as nursery areas, which is a behaviour
that may increase fitness. The ecological benefits of shark nursery areas are well studied; …

Many species with broad distributions are exposed to different thermal regimes which often
select for varied phenotypes. This intraspecific variation is often overlooked but may be …

Sharks are one of the most threatened groups of marine animals worldwide, mostly owing to
overfishing and habitat degradation/loss. Although these cartilaginous fish have evolved to …

Climate change is warming the world's oceans at an unprecedented rate. Under predicted
end-of-century temperatures, many teleosts show impaired development and altered critical …

In a 10-month experimental study, we assessed the combined impact of warming and
acidification on critical life stages of small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula). Using …

Catch-and-release fishing is an important component of ecotourism industries and scientific
research worldwide, but its total impact on animal physiology, health and survival is …

Alterations in predation pressure can have large effects on trophically-structured systems.
Modification of predator behaviour via ocean warming has been assessed by laboratory …

Nursery area habitats such as estuaries are vital for the success of many fish populations.
Climate change is altering conditions in these areas, which can thus impact the availability …

Laboratory‐based studies examining fish physiological and behavioural responses to
temperature can provide important insight into species‐specific habitat preferences and …
