The paper tests if caudal fin aspect ratio in sharks can infer dispersal potential, finding no latitudinal gradient and associations with habitat and body size.

The paper examines the allometry of spiracles and gill slits in rays to infer respiratory capacity and metabolic rate across species.

The paper assesses the effectiveness of marine protected areas (MPAs) in protecting sharks and rays by analyzing coverage within national waters and identifying significant gaps in protection and reporting.
