🧪🦤🌐 Acoustically tagged reef manta rays at Palmyra Atoll had an average residency rate of 88% and showed consistent use of all four primary habitats at Palmyra with the highest rates of detection recorded in the nutrient rich lagoon habitats. bit.ly/meps_774_219 @sabrinadaley.bsky.social
Image shows two scientific figures framed on either side by a pair of black manta ray graphics. The upper figure is a five-panel marginal-effects plot that displays how environmental and temporal variables influence the predicted occurrence rate of acoustically detected reef manta rays at Palmyra Atoll. The bottom figure is a map of Palmyra Atoll showing a network of acoustic receivers represented as circular nodes connected by many thin blue lines that represent the relative frequency of sequential detections between receiver stations. Land area is shown in red and a scale bar labeled '3km' and a north arrow appears in the upper right of the map.

🦈 NEW PAPER: Our long-term imagery from Central CA white shark sites reveals extensive injuries & scars. What causes these wounds? We developed a classification system to categorize injury patterns. 📖 www.frontiersin.org/journals/mar...

🚨NEW PAPER🚨 We used acoustic telemetry to track 355 white sharks over a 15 year period in California, describing differences in seasonal trends among demographic groups. DM if you need a copy, and huge thanks to all collaborators - it took a village! www.publish.csiro.au/WR/WR24136

Feel in love with penguins on a visit to Isla Pingüino today. Very jealous of all you penguin researchers out there!

I always love hearing about @emilylester.bsky.social's work using life-size shark models to look at risk effect behaviours. This was the first paper from her PhD on the topic nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

I love this paper by @sammy-shark.bsky.social et al. Shark vertical movements are fascinating to me, and this paper makes the most of a cool high resolution dataset from an ecophysiology perspective. 🦑 🧪 🦈 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hi Bluesky! I'm Sammy and according to my research to date, I'm a big fan of movement and sharks. What scholargoggler.com doesn't tell you is that I also love to surf, hike, drink wine with friends, and generally be outside.
