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 …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have recently been proposed to be more relevant in driving
population changes than the continuous increase in average temperatures associated with …

The epaulette shark, Hemiscyllium ocellatum, is a small, reef-dwelling, benthic shark that—
using its paired fins—can walk, both in and out of water. Within the reef flats, this species …

ABSTRACT these shifts; yet, research has only just begun to elucidate how these rapid
changes interact in this long-evolved, slowly repro-Globally, climate change is predicted to …

DNA integrity is crucial for organismal health, and assessing DNA damage in aquatic
organisms is essential for identifying environmental threats and informing conservation …

Ocean acidification is a consequence of chemical changes driven mainly by a continuous
uptake of carbon dioxide, resulting in pH decrease. This phenomenon represents an …

In a 10-month experimental study, we assessed the combined impact of warming and
acidification on critical life stages of small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula). Using …

In recent years, much attention has been focused on the impact of climate change,
particularly via ocean acidification (OA), on marine organisms. Studying the impact of OA on …

Myriad anthropogenic impacts drive declines in global shark populations; yet, the
consequences of a newly recognised threat, global climate change, are poorly understood …
