Bioindicator species are increasingly valuable in environmental pollution monitoring, and
elasmobranch species include many suitable candidates for that role. By measuring …

Global climate change affects a suite of oceanic characteristics including temperature,
salinity, currents, and animal distribution. It is imperative that accurate baselines in …

Bycatch mortality is a major factor contributing to shark population declines. Post-release
mortality (PRM) is particularly difficult to quantify, limiting the accuracy of stock assessments …

The assessment of parameters population size and individual home range is important for
effective conservation management of sharks. This study uses the novel application of photo …

Climate change influences marine environmental conditions and is projected to increase
future environmental variability. In the North Atlantic, such changes will affect the behavior …

The post-release mortality (PRM) rate of sharks can be an important factor in estimating
overall mortality in stock assessments. However, the accuracy of PRM rates is dependent on …

Post‐release mortality threatens shark populations already imperiled by overfishing, capture
stress, and a changing climate. Few studies have quantified post‐release mortality for …

Drones are an ecological tool used increasingly in shark research over the past decade.
Due to their high-resolution camera and GPS systems, they have been used to estimate the …

The cardiorespiratory system distributes oxygen and other factors (nutrients, wastes,
hormones etc.) around the body and thus plays a central role in mediating many …

Recreational shark fisheries have been the subject of recent public attention because of the
possible impacts on shark populations and conflicts between stakeholders. A case study is …
