Habitat use, movements and site fidelity of the gray smooth-hound shark (Mustelus californicus Gill 1863) in a newly restored southern California estuary (2011, background): “, 2006), blacktips Carcharhinus limbatus (Heupel and Simpfendorfer, 2005), and cownose rays Rhinoptera bonanus (Collins et al.”
Movements and site fidelity of the giant manta ray, Manta birostris, in the Komodo Marine Park, Indonesia (2008, background): “Acoustic arrays have proven a valuable tool in this and other studies (Klimley and Halloway 1999; Sundstrom et al. 2001; Voegeli et al. 2001; Heupel and Simpfendorfer 2005) and are ideal for species that return to predictable locations.”
The role of learning in shark behaviour (2009, background): “Sharks are known to group in size-, sex- and species-specific groups (Klimley and Nelson 1981; Economakis and Lobel 1998; Sims 2003; Heupel and Simpfendorfer 2005; Guttridge et al. 2009).”
Variation in depth of whitetip reef sharks: does provisioning ecotourism change their behaviour? (2011, background): “Increased vertical activity at night is common in shark species (Standora and Nelson 1977; Klimley and Nelson 1984; Sims et al. 2001; Sundstrom et al. 2001; Heupel and Simpfendorfer 2005) and has often been linked to foraging behaviour (Klimley and Nelson 1984; Sims et al. 2001).”
Sizing up the ecological role of sharks as predators (2014, background): “In general, the juvenile life stages of many coastal sharks tend to be found in shallow waters—possibly to minimise predation risk (Bran - stetter 1990, Heupel & Simpfendorfer 2005, Wetherbee et al. 2007).”
Deep danger: intra-specific predation risk influences habitat use and aggregation formation of juvenile lemon sharks Negaprion brevirostris (2012, background): “…location over long time intervals as a proxy for individual habitat use, which makes exploring questions about the mechanisms driving habitat selection and behavioural decisions made over short temporal and spatial scales difficult (Heupel & Simpfendorfer 2005, Heit - haus 2007, Knip et al. 2010).”
Spatial and temporal movement patterns of a multi-species coastal reef shark aggregation (2011, unknown): “We then implanted acoustic tags — V13-1H (153 dB), V16-5H (165 dB) and V16-5x 262 Speed et al.: Movement patterns of a coastal reef shark aggregation (165 dB); Vemco — coated in beeswax in the peritoneal cavity (see Heupel et al. 2006).”
Social preferences of juvenile lemon sharks, Negaprion brevirostris (2009, background): “Numerous shark studies have also noted evidence for size segregation from telemetry and long-line data ( Heupel & Simpfendorfer 2005; Hulbert et al. 2005).”
Evaluating catch and mitigating risk in a multispecies, tropical, inshore shark fishery within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area (2011, background): “Other factors, such as naturally low abundance as well as complex migration patterns and spatial usage (e.g. sex segregation, site fidelity; Heupel and Simpfendorfer 2005; Sims 2005), can further increase the vulnerability of some elasmobranchs to overfishing.”
Social behaviour in sharks and rays: analysis, patterns and implications for conservation (2012, background): “Alternatively, within a coastal environment, Heupel and Simpfendorfer (2005) studied the movements and interactions of neonate blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus, Carcharinidae) over a period of 3 years revealing persistent aggregation during daylight hours and dispersal at night.”
Abundance and demography of a seasonal aggregation of zebra sharks Stegostoma fasciatum (2008, background): “These may provide refuge from larger predators as well as foraging grounds (Heupel & Simpfendorfer 2005).”
