Spatial patterns in prey relative abundance suggest top‐down effects at juvenile white shark aggregation sites

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Predators regulate prey populations across ecosystems, driving heterogeneity in prey distribution through both direct consumption and indirect “fear” effects. Such effects generally demonstrate a positive relationship with predator density and length of exposure to predation. Juvenile white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias; JWS) are a generalist
