• Inter-island movements of scalloped hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna lewini) and seasonal connectivity in a marine protected area of the eastern tropical Pacific (2014, background): “For example, tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier) switch among habitat patches to improve their foraging success (Heithaus et al. 2002), and by spending little time at each habitat patch, they avoid making potential prey more vigilant and difficult to catch (Meyer et al. 2009).”
• Complexities of coastal shark movements and their implications for management (2010, background): “Juvenile tiger sharks are also wider-ranging and spend less time in localised areas than adults, which might be due to predation risk on juveniles from adults or possibly resource exclusion (Meyer et al. 2009).”
• Long-term movement patterns and trophic ecology of blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) at Palmyra Atoll (2010, unknown): “Individual differences in seasonal movements have been seen in other shark and teleost top-predators in tropical ecosystems, and may be related to temporally or spatially separate mating/spawning aggregations, although this has yet to be verified (e.g. Meyer et al., 2007, 2009).”
• Don't bite the hand that feeds: assessing ecological impacts of provisioning ecotourism on an apex marine predator (2012, background): “However, at present, the debate has been largely rhetorical because of lack of sufficient quantitative data to either support or refute various hypotheses regarding apex predator conditioning and behaviourally or ecologically mediated effects (Meyer et al. 2009b; Brunnschweiler & McKenzie 2010).”
• Sizing up the ecological role of sharks as predators (2014, background): “However, the same may not be true for apex predators because their broad movement patterns and large home ranges (Meyer et al. 2009) would expose them to a greater diversity of fishing fleets and gears, and thus a greater overall mortality than the smaller-ranging, reef-dwelling mesopredators.”
• Interpreting diel activity patterns from acoustic telemetry: the need for controls (2010, methodology): “Spectral analyses such as Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT; e.g. Meyer et al. 2007, Yeiser et al. 2008, Afonso et al. 2009, Meyer et al. 2009, Papastamatiou et al. 2009), and non-parametric techniques such as chisquared goodness of fit or Mann-Whitney U-tests are commonly used to examine patterns…”
• Seasonal and life-stage variation in the reproductive ecology of a marine apex predator, the tiger shark Galeocerdo cuvier, at a protected female-dominated site (2016, background): “…oceanic species, it also occupies a variety of other habitats, including coral reefs, pelagic environments, and oceanic atolls (Heithaus et al. 2007, Meyer et al. 2009, Fitzpatrick et al. 2012, Hammerschlag et al. 2012, 2015, Hazin et al. 2013, Papastamatiou et al. 2013, Werry et al. 2014).”
• Yo-yo vertical movements suggest a foraging strategy for tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier (2011, background): “…shark Galeocerdo cuvier is a large (up to 5.5 m total length), wide-ranging obligate swimmer with a broad diet (Lowe et al. 1996, Holland et al. 1999, Meyer et al. 2009), and previous studies have revealed that this species exhibits yo-yo diving behavior (Holland et al. 1999, Heithaus et al. 2002).”
• Quantifying movement patterns for shark conservation at remote coral atolls in the Indian Ocean (2011, background): “Segregation can also be a reflection of differing physiological tolerances to environmental and other abiotic conditions that could provide gradients to separate juvenile and adult habitats (Morrissey and Gruber 1993b; Wetherbee et al. 1997; Pikitch et al. 2005; Carraro and Gladstone 2006; McAuley e”
