Don't bite the hand that feeds: assessing ecological impacts of provisioning ecotourism on an apex marine predator (2012, background): “Moreover, the majority of females found year-round at Tiger Beach are at, or above, the size at sexual maturity ( ‡300 cm, Whitney & Crow 2007) including all those tagged in this study (i.e. 329 cm TL ± 32 cm).”
A review of shark satellite tagging studies (2011, background): “…useful for measuring subtle changes in shark behavior, such as swimming speed, sound, tail–beat frequency, muscle contraction and acceleration (Sundström and Gruber, 1998; Lowe et al., 1998; Lowe, 2001; Lowe and Goldman, 2001; Meyer et al., 2007; Papastamatiou et al., 2007; Whitney and Crow, 2007).”
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): “Given the considerable variation in both tiger shark growth rates (e.g. Meyer et al. 2009) and size at maturity (260 to 347 cm TL; Whitney & Crow 2007, this study), we recognize that there is a certain level of uncertainty surrounding the designations as used in the current study.”
Long-term movement patterns of tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier in Hawaii (2009, methodology): “Sharks were assigned to each group using size at first reproduction (SFR) estimates derived from Hawaiian tiger sharks (male SFR = 292 cm TL, female SFR = 330 cm TL, Whitney & Crow 2007). t-tests were used to compare mean juvenile and adult: (1) maximum distance detected away from capture site, (2) ”
Effects of body size, age and maturity stage on diet in a large shark: ecological and applied implications (2008, background): “2005a), have a large absolute range of body size, mature over a range of sizes and ages, and continue growing after reaching sexual maturity (e.g., Lucifora et al. 2005b; Bishop et al. 2006; Whitney and Crow 2007).”
