The consequences of human influence can arise in vertebrates as primary, secondary, or
even tertiary stressors and may be especially detrimental for slow growing species with long …

Despite the long evolutionary history of this group, the challenges brought by the
Anthropocene have been inflicting an extensive pressure over sharks and their relatives …

Intertidal habitats (ie marine habitats that are (partially) exposed during low tide) have
traditionally been studied from a shorebird‐centred perspective. We show that these habitats …

Global oceans are absorbing over 90% of the heat trapped in our atmosphere due to
accumulated anthropogenic greenhouse gases, resulting in increasing ocean temperatures …

Climate change stressors (eg, warming and ocean acidification) are an imminent challenge
to the physiological performance of marine organisms. Several studies spanning the last …

Whale shark (Rhincodon typus) tourism is increasingly popular at predictable aggregations
around the world, but only a few use provisioning to ensure close interactions …

Climate change is affecting thermal regimes globally, and organisms relying on their
environment to regulate biological processes face unknown consequences. In ectotherms …

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 …

Thermal dependence of growth and metabolism can influence thermal preference and
tolerance in marine ectotherms, including threatened and data-deficient species. Here, we …

Thermal tolerance and associated mechanisms are often tested via the critical thermal
maximum (CT max). The agitation temperature is a recently described thermal limit in fishes …
