Links between the three-dimensional movements of whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) and the bio-physical environment off a coral reef
Abstract Background Measuring coastal-pelagic prey fields at scales relevant to the movements of marine predators is challenging due to the dynamic and ephemeral nature of these environments. Whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) are thought to aggregate in nearshore tropical waters due to seasonally enhan...
