The influence of micro-scale thermal habitat on the movements of juvenile white sharks in their Southern California aggregation sites

While juvenile white sharks (JWS) can display regional endothermy, the need to maintain internal temperatures within an energetically favorable range likely drives thermoregulatory movements to maximize growth and foraging efficiency. Many JWS from the northeastern Pacific population aggregate seaso...
