Residency and spatial use by reef sharks of an isolated seamount and its implications for conservation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Although marine protected areas (MPAs) are a common conservation strategy, these areas are often designed with little prior knowledge of the spatial behaviour of the species they are designed to protect.

Vulnerability of tropical fish communities across depth in the central Indian Ocean. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract 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.

Quantifying shark distribution patterns and species-habitat associations: implications of marine park zoning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Quantifying shark distribution patterns and species-specific habitat associations in response to geographic and environmental drivers is critical to assessing risk of exposure to fishing, habitat degradation, and the effects of climate change.

Long-term changes in species composition and relative abundances of sharks at a provisioning site. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Diving with sharks, often in combination with food baiting/provisioning, has become an important product of today's recreational dive industry. Whereas the effects baiting/provisioning has on the behaviour and abundance of individual shark species are ...
