Because metabolic rate depends predictably on both body size and temperature, we can estimate the magnitude of many ecological processes from the temperature and size of the organisms that affect ...

Assuming that O. megalodon had a body plan consistent with the vast majority of sharks, the team determined that its head length and tail length possibly occupied about 16.6% and 32.6% ...

So there has been considerable debate among paleobiologists about megalodon's size, body shape, and swimming speed, among other characteristics. While some researchers have compared megalodon to a ...

Assuming that O. megalodon had a body plan consistent with the vast majority of sharks, the team determined that its head length and tail length possibly occupied about 16.6% and 32.6% ...

To fill in the gaps, Shimada and his colleagues developed a new method to estimate the body length of the leviathan, using a nearly complete vertebral column from Belgium and another incomplete ...

The study team, which included researchers from University of California, Riverside and across the globe, used a novel approach to estimate the shark's total body length, moving beyond traditional ...

In order to estimate the shark's entire body length, Shimada collaborated with colleagues in Australia, Austria, Brazil, France, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the UK and the US, obtaining head ...
