Individual shark trajectory patterns and movement speeds were highly variable. Results indicate that Epaulette sharks may be more mobile during diurnal low tides than previously thought. The approach presented here allows the movements and behaviours of marine vertebrates to be analysed at resolutions not previously possible without complex and expensive acoustic arrays. This method would be useful to assess the habitat use and behaviours of sharks and rays in shallow water environments, where they are most likely to interact with humans.]]> Tue 03 Sep 2019 17:58:05 AEST ]]> A study of the behavioural response of whales to the noise of seismic air guns: design, methods and progress https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18727 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:02:45 AEDT ]]>
