  • Capture heats up sharks 

    Jackson, Andrew; Payne, Nicholas (2022)
    Catch-and-release fishing is an important component of ecotourism industries and scientific research worldwide, but its total impact on animal physiology, health and survival is understudied for many species of fishes, ...
  • Endothermy makes fishes faster but does not expand their thermal niche 

    Donohue, Ian; Harding, Lucy; Payne, Nicholas; Jackson, Andrew; Barnett, Adam; Halsey, Lewis; Huveneers, Charlie; Meyer, Carl; Papastamatiou, Yannis; Semmens, Jayson M.; Spencer, Erin; Watanabe, Yuuki (Functional Ecology, 2021-06-30)
    Regional endothermy has evolved several times in marine fishes, and two competing hypotheses are generally proposed to explain the evolutionary drivers behind this trait: thermal niche expansion and elevated cruising speeds. ...
  • Fish body sizes change with temperature but not all species shrink with warming 

    Payne, Nicholas (2020)
    Ectotherms generally shrink under experimental warming, but whether this pattern extends to wild populations is uncertain. We analysed ten million visual survey records, spanning the Australian continent and multiple decades ...
