Large‐scale movements and high‐use areas of western Pacific leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea (2011, background): “A similar pattern has been documented through telemetry studies of Atlantic leatherback turtles (James et al. 2005) as well as eastern Pacific sharks (Weng et al. 2008, Jorgensen et al. 2010).”
A review of shark satellite tagging studies (2011, background): “Three of the reviewed studies examined if shark habitat use was linked with prey availability (e.g. Shepard et al., 2006; Sims et al., 2006; Weng et al., 2008).”
Satellite tagging of blue sharks (Prionace glauca) and other pelagic sharks off eastern Australia: depth behaviour, temperature experience and movements (2010, unknown): “Weng et al. 2005 reported a mean track length of 338 days for 38 salmon sharks using SPOT; the inclusion of an additional 30 tags in a subsequent study (Weng et al. 2008) resulted in a mean track length of 298 days.”
Use of marine protected areas and exclusive economic zones in the subtropical western North Atlantic Ocean by large highly mobile sharks (2016, unknown): “Unlike the United States, the Bahamas EEZ fully protects sharks through a ban on commercial and recreational ﬁshing for sharks and trade of all shark products, since 2011 (NOAA 2011, Regulation 36D).”
A multiple instrument approach to quantifying the movement patterns and habitat use of tiger (Galeocerdo cuvier) and Galapagos sharks (Carcharhinus galapagensis) at French Frigate Shoals, Hawaii (2010, unknown): “SPOT transmission times during our study (22–161 days) exceeded those previously reported for tiger sharks (n = 5, 12– 99 days; Heithaus et al. 2007) and blue sharks (Prionace glauca, n = 7, 0–159 days; Stevens et al. 2010) but fell short of those reported for white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias, n”
Stable isotope dynamics in elasmobranch fishes (2010, background): “, 2008) that have also been observed in many shark species (e.g., Merson & Pratt, 2001; Carpenter, 2002; Queiroz et al., 2005; Weng et al., 2008).”
Don't bite the hand that feeds: assessing ecological impacts of provisioning ecotourism on an apex marine predator (2012, unknown): “Remaining transmissions were filtered to eliminate locations on land and those related to swimming speeds >2 m s )1 (following Weng et al. 2005, 2008).”
Sharks in nearshore environments: models, importance, and consequences (2010, background): “…and kin selection; adult females presumably expend energy migrating inshore to distinct areas for 4 Knip et al.: Sharks in nearshore environments no other reason than to give birth and leave their pups in nearshore regions (Weng et al. 2008), receiving no direct physical benefit themselves.”
Inferring shark population trends from generalized linear mixed models of pelagic longline catch and effort data (2010, background): “As such, they can provide important information about the spatial distributions and hotspots of these species, which is complementary to the large body of data currently being collected from tagging programs for wide-ranging species (e.g. Weng et al., 2008).”
