Addressing important questions in animal ecology, physiology, and environmental science
often requires in situ information from wild animals. This difficulty is being overcome by …

The Mobulidae are zooplanktivorous elasmobranchs comprising two recognized species of
manta rays (Manta spp.) and nine recognized species of devil rays (Mobula spp.). They are …

Recent research on ocean health has found large predator abundance to be a key element
of ocean condition. Fisheries can impact large predator abundance directly through targeted …

It is an open question how animals find food in dynamic natural environments where they
possess little or no knowledge of where resources are located. Foraging theory predicts that …

It is generally assumed that the extreme life history traits of pelagic seabirds, such as low

During the last 30 years, at-sea studies of seabirds and marine mammals in the oceans
south of the Subtropical Front have described an association with major frontal areas. More …

Biology of Sharks and Their Relatives is an award-winning and groundbreaking exploration
of the fundamental elements of the taxonomy, systematics, physiology, and ecology of …

Electronic tracking technologies revolutionized wildlife ecology, notably for studying the
movements of elusive species such as seabirds. Those advances are key to seabird …

Long‐distance dispersal (LDD) includes events in which propagules arrive, but do not
necessarily establish, at a site far removed from their origin. Although important in a variety …

Recent advances in satellite tagging technologies have provided scientists growing
opportunities to resolve previously unknown spatial ecology of marine predators, including …
