Locomotion in SharksOrientation of the body one of most important factors
1° means of force
Induced swimming with body horizontal (x) and no vertical (y) motion produces positive body angles (lift)
Angle of attack decreases as speed increases toward 2 body lengths/s
![Page 19: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How Locomotion is Measured
High speed imagery recorded of shark along with reflective particles in wake

Locomotion in Sharksdd

Locomotion in SharksMotion of the tail is a key aspect to locomotion – complex 3d manner
Kinematics indicates the shark caudal provides thrust and lift by moving water posteriorly and ventrally
![Page 22: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Locomotion in Sharks2 distinct types of pectoral fins in sharks
Aplesodic – cardilagenous radials are blunt and extend up to 50% into the fin with the distal web supported only by ceratotrichia*
Plesodic – have radials that extend more than 50% into the fin to stiffen it and supplement the support of the ceratotrichia
*unsegmented, filamentous fin rays
![Page 23: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Locomotion in SharksAplesodic fins are more maneuverable; may be used for “walking” on substrate
![Page 24: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Locomotion in SharksHeterocercal tail angle causes a change in body angle
![Page 25: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Locomotion in SharksWhich causes lift in a swimming shark
Degree of lift is dependent upon the type of tail
![Page 26: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Locomotion in SharksBody orientation, tail thrust, and maneuvering the pectoral fins all coordinate in force balance during swimming
![Page 27: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Locomotion in Skates & RaysBatoids either undulate or oscillate the pectoral fins
![Page 28: Natural History of Sharks, Skates, and Rays Locomotion MARE 380 Dr. Turner](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d2f550346895dcb28c2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Locomotion in Skates & RaysBasal batoids (guitarfishes, sawfishes, & electric rays)– undulate thick tails like sharks

Oscillation – cownose & manta
