Environmental DNA reveals unsuspected shark diversity and calls for monitoring protection of residual populations.
Marine mammals can play important ecological roles in aquatic ecosystems, and their presence be key to community structure function. Consequently, marine are often considered indicators of ecosystem health flagship species. Yet, historical population declines caused by exploitation, additional current threats, such as climate change, fisheries bycatch, pollution maritime development, continue impact many mammal species, at least 25% classified threatened (Critically Endangered, Endangered or...
The Indian Ocean was designated as a whale sanctuary in 1979. While cetacean research has been conducted throughout the sanctuary, few studies have to assess diversity, distribution and abundance of cetaceans inhabiting waters surrounding islands northern Mozambique Channel. In order contribute management conservation efforts this area, series small boatbased surveys were undertaken around island Mayotte from July 2004 August 2005 diversity lagoon waters, i.e. external barrier reef slope,...
A global survey of coral reefs reveals that overfishing is driving resident shark species toward extinction, causing diversity deficits in reef elasmobranch (shark and ray) assemblages. Our species-level analysis revealed declines 60 to 73% for five common individual were not detected at 34 47% surveyed reefs. As become more shark-depleted, rays begin dominate Shark-dominated assemblages persist wealthy nations with strong governance highly protected areas, whereas poverty, weak governance,...

Tropical cyclones drive coastal ecosystem dynamics, and their frequency, intensity, spatial distribution are predicted to shift with climate change. Patterns of resistance resilience were synthesized for 4138 time series from n = 26 storms occurring between 1985 2018 in the Northern Hemisphere predict how ecosystems will respond future disturbance regimes. Data grouped by (fresh water, salt terrestrial, wetland) response categories (biogeochemistry, hydrography, mobile biota, sedentary...
Small cetaceans (dolphins, porpoises, and small toothed whales) occur from the poles to tropics, freshwater habitats open ocean. Most ecological research has focused on influence of abiotic factors abundance, distribution, behavior these species. The impacts communities ecosystems remain poorly quantified. Their movement patterns, often high local regional abundances across a range ecosystems, metabolic rates suggest that could have large effects ecosystem structure, dynamics, function...
Abstract Quantifying the diet composition of apex marine predators such as killer whales ( Orcinus orca) is critical to assessing their food web impacts. Yet, with few exceptions, feeding ecology these remains poorly understood. Here, we use our newly validated quantitative fatty acid signature analysis (QFASA) approach on nearly 200 and over 900 potential prey model diets across 5000 km span North Atlantic. Diet estimates show that mainly consume other in western Atlantic (Canadian Arctic,...

Although humpback whales are among the best-studied of large whales, population boundaries in Southern Hemisphere (SH) have remained largely untested. We assess structure SH using 1,527 samples collected from at fourteen sampling sites within Southwestern and Southeastern Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Northern Ocean (Breeding Stocks A, B, C X, respectively). Evaluation mtDNA migration rates was carried out under different statistical frameworks. Using all genetic evidence, results suggest...
Abstract Within oligotrophic ecosystems, resource limitations coupled with interspecific variation in morphology, physiology, and life history traits may lead to niche partitioning among species. How generalist predators partition resources their mechanisms, however, remain unclear across many ecosystems. We quantified upper trophic level coastal estuarine species: American alligators ( Alligator mississippiensis ), bull sharks Carcharhinus leucas common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops...
A novel image analysis‐based technique applied to unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) survey data is described detect and locate individual free‐ranging sharks within aggregations. The method allows rapid collection of quantification fine‐scale swimming collective patterns sharks. We demonstrate the usefulness this in a small‐scale case study exploring shoaling tendencies blacktip reef Carcharhinus melanopterus large lagoon Moorea, French Polynesia. Using our approach, we found that C. displayed...
The measurable impacts of small-scale fisheries on coastal marine ecosystems and vulnerable megafauna species (elasmobranchs, mammals sea turtles) within them are largely unknown, particularly in developing countries. This study assesses catch composition handline, longline, bottom-set drift gillnet the southwestern Indian Ocean. Observers monitored 21 landing sites across Kenya, Zanzibar northern Madagascar for 12 months 2016–17. Landings (n = 4666) identified 59 species, including three...
Age constitutes a critical parameter for the study of animal populations, providing information about development, environmental effects, survival, and reproduction. Unfortunately, age estimation is not only challenging in large, mobile legally protected species, but often involves invasive sampling methods. The present work investigates association between epigenetic modifications chronological small cetaceans. For that purpose, characterized DNA methylation at age-linked genes an...
