Parturition time for the Blacktip shark, Carcharhinus limbatus (Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae), in Southwestern Atlantic [PDF]
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2020 The determination of the period of parturition and identification of nursery areas are fundamental for the management and conservation of a fishing resource.

Volitional Swimming Kinematics of Blacktip Sharks, Carcharhinus limbatus, in the Wild [PDF]
Drones, 2020 Recent work showed that two species of hammerhead sharks operated as a double oscillating system, where frequency and amplitude differed in the anterior and posterior parts of the body. We hypothesized that a double oscillating system would be present in

A blacktip's black tip: The reliability of using dorsal-fin patterns for photo identification of blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus). [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Photo identification (photo ID) has increasingly become a valuable technique serving not only to identify individual animals but also to monitor populations, track migration patterns and assess wildlife health, among others uses. Various species of sharks are amenable to photo ID, among which the blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus)

In Situ Thrust Measurement of Fish During Locomotion; Test Case: Sharks. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe present a novel method that uses in situ video data of fish locomotion to calculate thrust. This methodology was applied to several large elasmobranch species, which are typically challenging to measure. Our findings indicate that coastal pelagic species exhibited lower scaled thrust than benthic species, suggesting that benthic species may be less ...

Predictions of southern migration timing in coastal sharks under future ocean warming. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Projected redistribution of marine species due to ocean warming may undermine current conservation efforts. Yet, there have been few studies on how ocean warming may alter migration timing. Across 5 years of acoustic telemetry data (2018–2022), we determined environmental drivers of southward migration timing for 6 migratory shark species from

A Comparison of DNA Metabarcoding Cloacal Swabs and Stomach Contents for Shark Diet Reconstruction
Environmental DNAMetabarcoding fecal matter is increasingly common in dietary studies across a variety of taxa. This approach assumes that enough prey DNA remains detectable in the fecal DNA (fDNA) as the prey DNA becomes degraded while passing through the digestive ...
