Abstract
Large predatory sharks such as the white shark (WS) and shortfin mako (SMK) have been historically depleted to Critically Endangered levels in the Mediterranean Sea. Despite their low abundance, the Tunisian Plateau seemingly plays a crucial ecological role as a potential nursery and feeding ground, supporting the early life stages of these species.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
