A Proposed Method for Assessing the Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Carcharhinus melanopterus (Quoy and Gaimard, 1824) in Shallow Waters Using a UAV: A Study Conducted in Koh Tao, Thailand

Diversity
In this study, we propose a method for assessing the temporal and spatial distribution of Carcharhinus melanopterus in shallow waters using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Vulnerability of tropical fish communities across depth in the central Indian Ocean

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Coral reefs and their fish communities below scuba diving depth (>30 m), in mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) (∼30–150 m), in rariphotic (150–300 m), and in upper bathyal waters (300–500 m) are often underexplored, especially in the Indian Ocean.

First record of albinism in the blacktip reef shark Carcharhinus melanopterus from Malabar coast [PDF]

, 2011
Albinism is lack of pigmentation caused by an enzyme deficiency involving the metabolism of melanin during prenatal development. Among teleost fishes, albino individuals have been reported in numerous species, but in elasmobranchs it is rare.

DNA Divers: Volunteer‐based eDNA capture for local and global marine biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2431-2447, October 2025.
Abstract Volunteer‐based biodiversity recording is a powerful source of scalable data yet to be used to its full potential by the scientific community. Coastal ecosystems are varied and diverse, making it difficult for managers to identify flexible methods for monitoring biological components.

Spatial and temporal analysis of juvenile blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus) demographies identifies critical habitats [PDF]

Reef shark species have undergone sharp declines in recent decades, as they inhabit coastal areas, making them an easy target in fisheries (i.e., sharks are exploited globally for their fins, meat, and liver oil) and exposing them to other threats (e.g.,

Zero‐shot shark tracking and biometrics from aerial imagery

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 2023-2035, September 2025.
Abstract The recent widespread adoption of drones for studying marine animals provides opportunities for deriving biological information from aerial imagery. The large scale of imagery data acquired from drones is well suited for machine learning (ML) analysis.
