Fun facts for #NorfolkShark migrations: -Most individuals were females >3.5m TL -88% of sharks tracked across multiple seasons returned to NFK at least once -The longest track was close to 17,000 km over 468 days -63% of sharks were detected at New Caledonia

Another year, another trip on Norfolk Island, but this time to deploy SPLASH tags to record tiger shark use of the water column across their migrations #NorfolkSharks

With >50% of tiger shark diet on Norfolk Island being bird, it made sense to start learning more about Norfolk's seabirds New project targeting shearwater movement and rafting ecology just started in collaboration with #NicholasCarlile @jcu @BiopixelTV @usceduau

Since 2020, we've been coming to Norfolk Island to study shark movements in relation to human activities. This year, we presented our findings and report to the community, Norfolk Council and @ausmarineparks Amazing to have 150 people attending the event! #NorfolkSharks

Perfect timing with our 2025 Norfolk Island trip: new paper on tiger shark movement just out #NorfolkSharks https://t.co/PulzdV3BGJ 35 tiger sharks (avg size 4 m) satellite tracked over 5 years Led to the designation of @SharkRayAreas's Norfolk Ridge https://t.co/3gwG7itzhs

Community-Led Efforts Safeguard Sharks And Rays In South Australia

📑 #NewStudy by Burns et al. finds complementary results using two #fish community monitoring systems – BRUVS and #eDNA – in the Great Australian Bight. Both methods distinguished depth-dependent communities. 👀 https://t.co/nvAWmLiQUO @Flinders @Griffith_Uni @sagovau

https://t.co/pCLZzUnep0 @mike_microbe and #EwanBurns lead this comparison of fish assemblages between BRUVS and eDNA. Only 17 of 102 species recorded by both methods. 40% increase in species-level detections by combining datasets. Collab with @envirosanews and @ausmarineparks

Last one for the year and first paper of Dr @JDennis_Sci (recently graduated)‘s PhD now out in @TheFSBI issue. Developing new methods to count and estimate abundance of schooling pelagic fish

Thanks to @IMOS_AUS for highlighting @ChloeNRoberts_ PhD project in the recent Marine Matters https://t.co/2k6hmFrpBk

New paper in Journal of Fish Biology by H. Malcolm and I. We assess the abundance and size of the threatened Black Rockcod (Epinephelus daemelii). Although protected for over 40 years, the species is still not recovering along the NSW coast - Australia. https://t.co/WaUdY8gGNU

Flinders University PhD candidate Chloe Roberts has played a key role in a community-driven campaign with to protect South Australia's endangered #sharks and #rays. More info 🌊 https://t.co/LImrTrPO34.

New study finds overfishing has halved shark and ray populations since 1970 #GlobalSharkTrends based on our new paper, email if you need a copy: https://t.co/Sa8x4AXOqP https://t.co/4busq6CrFC

New #GlobalSharkTrends study published in @ScienceMagazine reveals that #overfishing has more than halved shark & ray populations over the past 50-years causing widespread erosion of ecological function and exceptionally high extinction risk 👉🏽Full article https://t.co/hgqhWJOQyx

BREAKING: The IUCN Species Survival Commission Shark Specialist Group has released a new report on the global conservation status of sharks and their relatives. https://t.co/WWkuw21vfU

While most people who think about shark conservation think primarily about the global trade in shark fins, the global trade in shark meat is larger in volume and value, impacting different species and involving different markets.

The 2024 SSC Leaders’ Meeting has concluded with a powerful declaration on the need for urgent action to save species and halt biodiversity loss. Let’s act together to support biodiversity for a resilient planet! Our Planet, Our Responsibility. https://t.co/S0CPwyqbpg #WeAreSSC

Congratulations to James Whitelaw and Brad Hayman for delivering great presentations about their Honours projects #drones #biochem #SharkScience

Thanks to @sachiefsci for last night #SAScienceAwards celebrations and recognition of our research. Congratulations to all winners!

Keep them coming ! Submission to ‘White Sharks Global proceedings and recent advances in white shark ecology and conservation’ Collection is now OPEN in #WildlifeResearch https://t.co/gkj5mGhkgM @CSIROPublishing
