• Cascading top-down effects of changing oceanic predator abundances. (2009, background): “Shallow-water mesopredators such as cownose ray (Rhinoptera bonasus), smooth butterfly ray (Gymnura micrura), and Atlantic sharpnose shark (Rhizoprionodon terraenovae) all declined along with their predators ( Shepherd & Myers 2005 ).”
• Complexities of coastal shark movements and their implications for management (2010, background): “CONCLUSIONS Coastal sharks have become a subject of increasing research effort due to alarming decreases in popula- 287 Mar Ecol Prog Ser 408: 275–293, 2010 tion size (Shepherd & Myers 2005, Myers et al. 2007), and the greater availability and affordability of monitoring technology.”
• Ecological role, fishing impact, and management options for the recovery of a Mediterranean endemic skate by means of food web models (2013, background): “As predatory species, they play pivotal roles in the regulation of lower trophic level organisms and, therefore, of marine ecosystems, especially after the decline of the largest top predators such as, for example, large pelagic sharks (Shepherd and Myers, 2005; Myers et al., 2007; Baum and Worm, 20”
• Effects of body size, age and maturity stage on diet in a large shark: ecological and applied implications (2008, background): “2008) and empirical (Ward and Myers 2005; Shepherd and Myers 2005; Myers et al. 2007) evidence indicates that when populations of large sharks are depleted or extirpated, Table 2 Summary of models used to explain chondrichthyan consumption in number in the copper shark, Carcharhinus brachyurus”
• Variation in adult annual survival probability and remigration intervals of sea turtles (2007, background): “Additional factors to explain continued increases in nesting at Tortuguero include earlier maturation as a result of more rapid growth due to abundant food resources in the Caribbean (Bjorndal et al. 2000), and predation release caused by reduction in sharks ( Shepherd and Myers 2005 ).”
• Heat-seeking sharks: support for behavioural thermoregulation in reef sharks (2012, background): “Sharks are an important predator within the coastal marine environment and assist in maintaining ecosystem stability and prey community structure (Shepherd & Myers 2005, Myers et al. 2007).”
