Whale shark distributions are predicted to shift up to 1,000 km by 2100, due to climate change, putting them at increased risk of collisions with global shipping. Read the new paper co-authored by @llsousa84 and colleagues 👉 nature.com/articles/s4155…
Whale sharks on collision course as warming seas may force them into shipping lanes – new study bit.ly/4gUs1Vs
Whale sharks may be 15,000 times more likely to collide with shipping vessels at the end of the century, under high-emissions scenario. Warming oceans may force them to migrate towards cooler environments, leading to higher collision risk: nature.com/articles/s4155… @NatureClimate
Our researchers have led a new study which suggests #ClimateChange could increase the threat posed to endangered whale sharks, as they are driven into new habitats crossed by busy shipping lanes. Find out more 👉 brnw.ch/UoS_news_whale…
