Introducing PHYSIOSHARK | Baby sharks & climate change

What do baby sharks have to do with climate change?

___________________________________________

Besides fishing, pollution and habitat destruction climate change is a major threat to sharks. Increasing ocean temperatures, as well as decreasing oxygen availability, affect all animal's physiology including sharks.

The physioshark project specifically investigates how climate change impacts induced stressors affect baby sharks.

Around the island of Moorea in French Polynesia, a team of scientists conducts several field and lab-based experiments to find out more about the early-life stages of blacktip reef sharks and sicklefin lemon sharks.
