Small-scale fisheries catch more threatened elasmobranchs inside partially protected areas than in unprotected areas
Elasmobranchs are heavily impacted by fishing. Catch statistics are grossly underestimated
due to missing data from various fishery sectors such as small-scale fisheries. Marine …

Isotopic Tracers Suggest Limited Trans-Oceanic Movements and Regional Residency in North Pacific Blue Sharks (Prionace glauca)
Blue sharks (Prionace glauca) are globally distributed, large-bodied pelagic sharks that
make extensive migrations throughout their range. In the North Pacific, mark-recapture …

Environmental cycles and individual variation in the vertical movements of a benthic elasmobranch
Trends in depth and vertical activity reflect the behaviour, habitat use and habitat
preferences of marine organisms. However, among elasmobranchs, research has focused …

Seasonal and ontogenetic variation in depth use by a critically endangered benthic elasmobranch and its implications for spatial management
Seasonal and ontogenetic variations in depth use by benthic species are often concomitant
