Further evidence of pigmentation change in white sharks, Carcharodon carcharias
Marine and Freshwater Research, 2012Patterns of pigmentation are widely used for the identification of white sharks, with photographic databases often forming the basis for studies of population modelling, site fidelity and movement patterns. The permanence of these identifying markings is assumed to remain constant.

DEATH FOLLOWING ATTACK BY SHARK CARCHARODON CARCHARIAS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1944Controversy as to whether or not sharks will attack human beings has raged so violently in popular magazines and Sunday newspaper supplements that the medical and military importance of the subject may have been obscured. Injuries often attributed to sharks have been shown on closer investigation to have been inflicted by fish such as the barracuda ...

Regulation of body temperature in the white shark, Carcharodon carcharias
Journal of Comparative Physiology B: Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology, 1997Stomach temperatures of three white sharks, Carcharodoncarcharias, (one reported previously and two new individuals) were intermittently recorded by acoustic telemetry at the South Farallon Islands, central California. Temperature profiles of the water column were obtained concurrently. Stomach temperatures were elevated over ambient water temperatures

Multi-vehicle autonomous tracking and filming of white sharks Carcharodon carcharias
2016 IEEE/OES Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV), 2016In recent years, great technological subsurface advancements have been made to observe and study Carcharodon carcharias, white sharks with autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) [1]. Prior to 2011, tracking pelagic predators like sharks was limited to using active tracking from boats [2] and passive acoustic arrays [3].

White sharks Carcharodon carcharias at Bird Island, Algoa Bay, South Africa
African Journal of Marine Science, 2013We present the first quantitative study of the occurrence, size and sex of white sharks Carcharodon carcharias at Bird Island, Algoa Bay. Twenty-two boat trips were made to Bird Island between November 2009 and October 2011 to chum for sharks. A total of 53 sharks was observed over the study period, ranging in size from 1.5 to 4.5 m total length (TL ...

The hunting strategy of white sharks ( Carcharodon carcharias ) near a seal colony
Marine Biology, 2001The degree to which white sharks, Carcharodon carcharias, are social while hunting is unclear. Our aim was to describe the behavior and interactions among white sharks hunting seals near a seal colony. We attached ultrasonic beacons to five adult white sharks, 4.5–5.2 m long, and recorded their movements and behavior toward each other over a 15-day ...

Juvenile white sharks Carcharodon carcharias use estuarine environments in south-eastern Australia
Marine Biology, 2017Estuarine environments are known to provide important feeding, breeding, resting and nursery areas for a range of shark species, including some which are considered dangerous to humans. Juvenile white sharks (

Movements and swimming behaviour of white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) in Australian waters
Marine Biology, 2006We used a combination of satellite telemetry, archival and conventional tags to show that white sharks made broad-scale movements consistent with mixing of the population across their entire Australasian range. The capture of one of these sharks in New Zealand, some 3,550 km from the point of tagging in South Australia, provides further confirmation ...
