Zero‐shot shark tracking and biometrics from aerial imagery
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.

Speed‐dependent locomotor patterns during steady swimming in a demersal shark
Abstract Swimming ability is critical for navigating complex benthic habitats, yet the biomechanical strategies demersal sharks employ to modulate body and fin movements across varying speeds remain largely unexplored. This study examines speed‐dependent kinematic patterns in the small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), a benthic species with ...
