“…Normal DVM patterns were detected in the majority (83%) of behavioural sections in the present study. Diel vertical movement is common among large pelagic sharks and has been recorded in many species including Cetorhinus maximus (Shepard et al., ), Rhincodon typus (Brunnschweiler & Sims, ) , Lamna nasus (Francis, Holdsworth, & Block, ), A. superciliosus (Coelho et al., ), A. vulpinus (Cartamil, Wegner, Aalbers, et al., ), and P. glauca (Campana et al., ; Queiroz et al., ). Diel vertical movement of blue sharks has been hypothesised to be related to foraging, thermoregulation, predator avoidance, or orientation (Campana et al., ).…”
