Natural tags reveal populations of Conservation Dependent school shark use different pupping areas

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2018
Knowledge of reproductive movements and sources of recruitment in highly mobile species is important to understand population-level resilience and to manage recovery in populations depleted by human interference.

Towards climate-smart, three-dimensional protected areas for biodiversity conservation in the high seas

Nature Climate Change, 2022
Marine species are moving rapidly in response to warming, often in different directions and with variations dependent on location and depth. Given the current impetus to increase the area of protected ocean to 30%, conservation planning must include the ...

Effects of climate change and anthropogenic modification on a disturbance‐dependent species in a large riverine system

, 2017
Humans have altered nearly every natural disturbance regime on the planet through climate and land-use change, and in many instances, these processes may have interacting effects. For example, projected shifts in temperature and precipitation will likely

Wide-Scale Analysis of Human Functional Transcription Factor Binding Reveals a Strong Bias towards the Transcription Start Site [PDF]

, 2007
We introduce a novel method to screen the promoters of a set of genes with shared biological function, against a precompiled library of motifs, and find those motifs which are statistically over-represented in the gene set.
