Globally, marine animal distributions are shifting in response to a changing climate. These
shifts are usually considered at the species level, but individuals are likely to differ in how …

Over the last decade, the study of shark biology has benefited from the development,
refinement, and rapid expansion of novel techniques and advances in technology. These …

Shark fishing, driven by the fin trade, is the primary cause of global shark population
declines. Here, we present a case study that exemplifies how industrial fisheries are likely …

Tiger sharks were sampled off the western (Ningaloo Reef, Shark Bay) and eastern (the
Great Barrier Reef; GBR, Queensland and New South Wales; NSW) coastlines of Australia …

Over the last century, many shark populations have declined, primarily due to
overexploitation in commercial, artisanal and recreational fisheries. In addition, in some …

For broadly distributed, often overexploited species such as elasmobranchs (sharks and
rays), conservation management would benefit from understanding how life history traits …

Conservation measures often result in a 'wicked problem', ie a complex problem with
conflicting aims and no clear or straightforward resolution without severe adverse effects on …

Population genetics has been increasingly applied to study large sharks over the last
decade. Whilst large shark species are often difficult to study with direct methods, improved …

The lifelong tooth replacement in elasmobranch fishes (sharks, rays and skates) has led to
the assemblage of a great number of teeth from fossil and extant species, rendering tooth …

For threatened and commercially important species, genetic and genomic tools promise
accurate and cost-effective evaluations to contribute to effective conservation strategies and …
