Effects of an Electric Field on White Sharks: In Situ Testing of an Electric Deterrent

Elasmobranchs can detect minute electromagnetic fields, <1 nVcm(–1), using their ampullae of Lorenzini. Behavioural responses to electric fields have been investigated in various species, sometimes with the aim to develop shark deterrents to improve human safety. The present study tested the effe...
