Movements of tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier) in coastal Hawaiian waters
TLDR
The data suggest that Hawaiian tiger sharks move within large home ranges and that they can efficiently navigate between distant parts of their range, even when this requires crossing open ocean waters.

Differential movement patterns and site fidelity among trophic groups of reef fishes in a Hawaiian marine protected area
TLDR
Results indicate relatively small MPAs (<2 km of coastline) could provide effective, long-term protection for multi-species assemblages of reef fishes provided that boundaries are situated along major habitat breaks that may serve as natural barriers to reef fish movements.

Telemetry and random-walk models reveal complex patterns of partial migration in a large marine predator.
Animals are often faced with complex movement decisions, particularly those that involve long-distance dispersal. Partial migrations, ubiquitous among all groups of vertebrates, are a form of…

Movement patterns, home range size and habitat utilization of the bluespine unicornfish, Naso unicornis (Acanthuridae) in a Hawaiian marine reserve
SynopsisWe quantified bluespine unicornfish, Naso unicornis, movement patterns, home range size and habitat preferences in a small Hawaiian marine reserve. Bluespine unicornfish were site-attached to…

Long-term movement patterns of tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier in Hawaii
TLDR
A network of acoustic receivers was used to quantify the long-term movements of transmitter- equipped tiger sharks in the Main Hawaiian Islands, finding that juvenile tiger sharks were significantly wider-ranging and less frequently detected than mature females.

Movements and foraging of predators associated with mesophotic coral reefs and their potential for linking ecological habitats
TLDR
Investigation of the diel and seasonal movements of Galapagos sharks and giant trevally captured from a mesophotic reef at an uninhabited Pacific atoll suggests that marine predators may function as significant trans- porters of nutrients, particularly from shallow to mesophile reefs.

Seasonal and diel movements of giant trevally Caranx ignobilis at remote Hawaiian atolls : implications for the design of Marine protected areas
We need to understand the long-term movement patterns of coral reef top predators in order to design marine protected areas that will provide these animals with effective, long-term pro- tection. We…

Seasonal cycles and long-term trends in abundance and species composition of sharks associated with cage diving ecotourism activities in Hawaii
SUMMARY Shark cage diving is both popular and controversial, with proponents citing educational value and non-extractive use of natural resources and opponents raising concerns about public safety…

Inter-animal telemetry: results from first deployment of acoustic 'business card' tags
TLDR
The results indicate that the BC tag/MP2P approach can elucidate important inter-and intra-specific interactions among individ- uals in areas remote from traditional fixed receiver arrays.

Site fidelity and movements of sharks associated with ocean-farming cages in Hawaii
Sharks are found in association with main Hawaiian Island ocean fish farms more frequently and at higher densities than is typical for coastal Hawaiian waters. Sharks attracted to fish farms could…
