NEW Review paper: "Global tracking of shark movements, behaviour & ecology..." - three times the no. of satellite studies conducted during the 2010-2020 decade than ever before, tracking double the number of species previously tagged - led by Sam Renshaw sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Hammerhead sharks “hold their breath” to keep warm as they hunt in deep, cold waters, a new study finds. The previously unobserved and unexpected phenomenon may be widespread among other deep-diving sharks and fishes. Learn more this week in Science: scim.ag/2Au

New OA paper - Ever wanted to know how fast shortfin mako #sharks actually swim? We're beginning to find out w/ new bio-logging tags and it's surprising - great work by Matt Waller MBA - Marine Biological Association MOVE @OkeanosUac OceanEarthUniSoton Nuno Queiroz doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15…

Did you know? Human activity & the impacts of the #ClimateCrisis are putting whale sharks at an increasing risk of extinction. The Global Biodiversity Framework provides a blueprint to protect threatened species & halt nature loss. unep.org/resources/kunm…

New in nature – Shipping is on the rise: four steps to curb #OceanRoadkill of marine giants – increasing evidence ships strikes are major cause of human-induced mortality for whales & #sharks, but some simple actions can turn things around MBA - Marine Biological Association nature.com/articles/d4158…

There is increasing evidence that ship strikes are a major cause of mortality for whales, sharks and other ocean giants. With the global fleet growing, some simple actions can turn things around. go.nature.com/3Pu8Juu

The global cargo fleet has doubled in the last 16 years– and whale & shark ship strikes mirror that trend. University of Southampton researchers outline steps the world can take to prevent “ocean roadkill,” including #WHOI's acoustic buoys. Read more in nature: go.whoi.edu/nature-acousti…

The most dangerous areas for whale shark-shipping vessel collisions revealed. "The almost ubiquitous overlap of at least some large shipping vessel traffic with whale shark aggregations underlines the magnitude of the threat shipping industry poses." phys.org/news/2024-05-d…

📊 New research — supported by data our team provided on large vessel positions, reveals areas where whale sharks are at the highest risk for ship collisions. 🌐 Details on the study published in Science of the Total Environment here: bit.ly/4arPOHJ

New in NatureClimate – Climate-driven global redistribution of whale #sharks predicts increased threat from shipping, making possible increased mortality from lethal collisions & greater under High Emissions scenario Freya Womersley MBA - Marine Biological Association OA here: nature.com/articles/s4155…

📢 New shark science! A new paper in Nature Climate Change led by @freyawomersley highlights how climate change increases the risk of ship strikes on whale sharks. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Whale sharks may be up to 15,000 times more likely to collide with a shipping vessel at the end of the century, under a high-emissions scenario, according to a study in NatureClimate. go.nature.com/3zKOOCr

Whale sharks may be 15,000 times more likely to collide with shipping vessels at the end of the century, under high-emissions scenario. Warming oceans may force them to migrate towards cooler environments, leading to higher collision risk: nature.com/articles/s4155… NatureClimate
