The Dynamic Nature of Nearshore Shark Nurseries in the Northern Gulf of Mexico

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.
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 ...

Sharks associated with a large sand shoal complex: Community insights from longline and acoustic telemetry surveys.

PLoS ONE, 2023
Offshore sand shoals are a coveted sand source for coastal restoration projects and as sites for wind energy development. Shoals often support unique fish assemblages but their habitat value to sharks is largely unknown due to the high mobility of most ...

Defining distribution and habitat use of west‐central Florida’s coastal sharks through a research and education program

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Identifying critical habitat for highly mobile species such as sharks is difficult, but essential for effective management and conservation. In regions where baseline data are lacking, non‐traditional data sources have the potential to increase ...

Collagen Biomaterials: From Traditional Animal Sources to Marine and Recombinant Alternatives

International Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in animals and a key biomaterial due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and versatile functional properties. Traditionally, collagen has been obtained from land animal tissues such as bovine, porcine, and donkey skin, tendon, and bone.

Smells Like Home: The Role of Olfactory Cues in the Homing Behavior of Blacktip Sharks,Carcharhinus limbatus [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2015
Animal navigation in the marine environment is believed to be guided by different sensory cues over different spatial scales. Geomagnetic cues are thought to guide long-range navigation, while visual or olfactory cues allow animals to pinpoint precise locations, but the complete behavioral sequence is not yet understood.

Scale morphology and flexibility in the shortfin mako Isurus oxyrinchus and the blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus [PDF]

Journal of Morphology, 2012
AbstractCover illustration. The shortfin mako Isurus oxyrinchus is perhaps the fastest swimming shark. The modified scales on the lateral flank of the shark are highly flexible and are believed to erect during rapid swimming. Erection of the flank scales and resulting drag reduction is hypothesized to be passively driven by localized flow patterns over

Survival of the blacktip shark, Carcharhinus limbatus

, 2020
Proportional survival (S) is a crucial life-history parameter in population dynamics, natural selection, and management of harvested stocks; variations in survival due to age, sex, or geographic region may have large effects on the success of managing fish stocks. The blacktip shark, Carcharhinus limbatus, is the most abundantly harvested shark species
