Anthropogenic disturbance modifies spatial patterns of reef sharks
Species‐specific sensitivities mean that non‐extractive human presence can strongly reshape reef predator distributions even where fishing pressure is limited. Integrating tourism intensity and coastal development into marine spatial planning is therefore essential for reef shark conservation, and combining ecological surveys with open‐source social ...

The Dynamic Nature of Nearshore Shark Nurseries in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
ABSTRACT Aim Some habitats serve particularly important functions for wildlife. Identifying and appropriately managing these ‘essential habitats’ is critical, especially for wildlife that have faced severe population declines like sharks. Nursery habitats aid in the survival and development of juvenile sharks, which until recently were not formally ...
