Abstract

My submission is a research paper on the ecological role of the species the Greenland shark (Sominosus microcephalus). Very few research studies have been conducted on this species, so this paper is a review on over 30 various studies that have been completed. This paper offers a comprehensive view on the Greenland shark's feeding ecology, distribution, and reproduction as well as a discussion on the potential effects climate change and increasing human activity in the Arctic could have on this species.
