Virtually every pelagic shark expert in the world has contributed to this landmark publication which includes the latest data and knowledge on pelagic shark biology, fisheries, management, and conservation. Pelagic sharks face unprecedented levels of exploitation in all the world's oceans through both direct fisheries and by-catch, and effective management for these species is contingent upon solid science and data, which this book brings together for the first tim 410 0$aFish and aquatic resources series ;$v13. 606 $aSharks 606 $aShark fisheries 606 $aSharks$xConservation 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSharks. 615 0$aShark fisheries. 615 0$aSharks$xConservation. 676 $a597.3 701 $aCamhi$b Merry$0955851 701 $aPikitch$b Ellen K$0955852 701 $aBabcock$b Elizabeth A$0955853 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910145817903321 996 $aSharks of the open ocean$92163529 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02443nam 2200565 a 450 001 9910790208703321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-61761-143-3 035 $a(CKB)2670000000150162 035 $a(EBL)3020947 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000687413 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12286431 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000687413 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10755938 035 $a(PQKB)10535472 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3020947 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3020947 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10681085 035 $a(OCoLC)777549353 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000150162 100 $a20100618d2011 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aBiometrics$b[electronic resource] $etheory, applications, and issues /$fEllen R.
