Have you listened to this podcast episode with NSU's professor & Director of the @NSUGHRI & SOSF-SRC, Dr. Mahmood Shivji?🦈
#NSUHCAS#GoSharks#NSUProud
This week on #WorldofSharks, we zoom into the tiniest part of sharks – the DNA!
Our host @isla_hodgson is joined by Prof Mahmood Shivji, the @SaveOurSeas Foundation Shark Research Center director at @NSUGHRI.

Project leader @PelayoSalinas, @DarwinFound & SOSF Shark Research Center @NSUGHRI are working to understand movement patterns of blue sharks in Ecuador.
The aim: to identify areas of overlap with fishing fleets to inform management actions.

@GregChalmersPGA Brutha - if you are EVER in S. Florida, come shark tagging with @NSUGHRI shark researchers...it's WAY cool, and you'd have fun while helping gather scientific data for our research!
👀New blog post!
Logan et al. demonstrate that billfish the vertical fronts created by an oxygen minimum zone to hunt. Expanding OMZ’s may help predators hunt, but may also increase vulnerability to capture.

NSU was on national TV! 🦈
Check out NBC’s @TODAYshow segment featuring a local shark attack victim who joined @NSUGHRI’s research scientists on a recent shark tagging expedition.

NSU is going to be featured on NBC’s @TODAYshow! 📺
Tune in tomorrow, June 9, between 7:30-8 a.m. to see @NSUGHRI shark experts and a local shark attack victim unite for research, while dispelling myths about sharks.

🚨🚨New paper out today in @AnimalEcology!
We used #biologging tags to look at the foraging behavior of #marlin and #sailfish above the world's largest #OxygenMinimumZone. Spoiler alert: they use the hypoxic boundary to their advantage while hunting. https://t.co/V52vYFL14e
COQUI the whale shark has traveled over 14,500 miles so far! Check out COQUI’s incredible journey since being tagged by @NSUGHRI in September 2019 in Isla Mujeres, Mexico.

When @festivaltortuga is in town, you can count on us to be there!
Last week, we partied in the Conservation Village, educating our guests in the importance of the conservation of our coral reefs and oceans. 🌊🐢
Thanks to @RockTheOcean for having us!

Maps of sharks’ journeys show marine protected areas alone won’t save them.
#Silkysharks account for a huge proportion of the global fin trade yearly and have experienced a dramatic population decline in recent years due to this fishing pressure.
@DarwinFound@NSUGHRI
To determine why #silkysharks are heavily traded, researchers @SaveOurSeas Shark Research Center & @NSUGHRI in Florida, U.S., & @DarwinFound in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, with support from #GNPDirectorate, followed 47 silkies with satellite trackers.

Galápagos is the sharkiest place on the planet. Through collaborative research (@NSUGHRI@saveourseas@DarwinFound), the travel habits of a lesser-known species might offer clues about how to keep it that way. https://t.co/gOQc24s7ra @EurekAlert @https://twitter.com/saveourseas
Learn how research conducted by Ph.D. student Ryan Logan @NSUGHRI using sensors and camera is helping scientist gain new knowledge about behavior of sailfish.
Putting our planet first. 🌎
Ryan Logan, a Ph.D. student at @NSUGHRI, helped lead vital research to gain insight into the behavior of sailfish using high-resolution recording sensors and a camera, the first of its kind for sailfish and billfish.
