Ineffective health communication can drive health disparities and limit the effectiveness of interventions to reduce them. Stock photo libraries are a critical tool for developers of patient education, health education, and intervention materials. It is not clear how well stock photo libraries represent communities bearing disproportionate burdens of disease. Method. We conducted a search using five popular stock image libraries (Adobe Stock Images, Canva, Getty Images, Microsoft Office Image Library, and Pixabay) in November 2021 to evaluate diversity and representation in health-related stock photos. We searched for the following five key preventive health topics: healthy eating, exercising, quitting smoking, vaccination, and pregnancy. The images (N = 495) were coded for age, gender presentation, representation of perceived minoritized racial/ethnic identity, skin color using the Massey–Martin skin color scale, markers of high socioeconomic status (SES), and access costs. Results. The representation of perceived minoritized people, darker skin color, and inclusion of markers of high SES varied greatly by the search term and library. Images predominately portrayed young adults and adults, with limited representation of other age groups. Images in libraries with any paywall were significantly more likely to depict a person of perceived minoritized racial/ethnic identity and depict darker skin colors, and were significantly less likely to contain markers of high SES identity than images in libraries that were free to use. Discussion. We found that it costs more to develop culturally relevant health education materials for minoritized populations and groups that do not represent high SES populations. This may hinder the development of effective communication interventions. }, journal={HEALTH PROMOTION PRACTICE}, author={Chichester, Zachary A. and Jewell, Michelle A. and LePrevost, Catherine E. and Lee, Joseph G.

Increased understanding of aggregation patterns, combined with recent advances in technology have, however, facilitated a new breadth of studies revealing fresh insights into the biology and ecology of white sharks. Although we may no longer be able to refer to the white shark as a little-known, elusive species, there remain numerous key questions that warrant investigation and research focus. Although white sharks have separate populations, they seemingly share similar biological and ecological traits across their global distribution. Yet, white shark’s behavior and migratory patterns can widely differ, which makes formalizing similarities across its distribution challenging. Prioritization of research questions is important to maximize limited resources because white sharks are naturally low in abundance and play important regulatory roles in the ecosystem. Here, we consulted 43 white shark experts to identify these issues. The questions listed and developed here provide a global road map for future research on white sharks to advance progress toward key goals that are informed by the needs of the research community and resource managers.}, number={DEC}, journal={Frontiers in Marine Science}, year={2018} } @article{wcisel_o?riain_vos_chivell_2015, title={The role of refugia in reducing predation risk for Cape fur seals by white sharks}, volume={69}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84922080162&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1007/s00265-014-1825-5}, number={1}, journal={Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology}, author={Wcisel, M. and O?Riain, M.J. and Vos, A. and Chivell, W.}, year={2015}, pages={127–138} } @article{jewell_wcisel_towner_chivell_merwe_bester_2014, title={Core habitat use of an apex predator in a complex marine landscape}, volume={506}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84903309468&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.3354/meps10814}, abstractNote={Dyer Island Conservation Trust, Marine Dynamics Shark Tours and Dyer Island Cruises, VW South Africa and the National Lottery}, journal={Marine Ecology Progress Series}, author={Jewell, O.J.D. and Wcisel, M.A. and Towner, A.V. and Chivell, W. and Merwe, L. and Bester, M.N.}, year={2014}, pages={231–242} } @article{towner_wcisel_reisinger_edwards_jewell_2013, title={Gauging the Threat: The First Population Estimate for White Sharks in South Africa Using Photo Identification and Automated Software}, volume={8}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84878935418&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1371/journal.pone.0066035}, abstractNote={South Africa is reputed to host the world’s largest remaining population of white sharks, yet no studies have accurately determined a population estimate based on mark-recapture of live individuals. We used dorsal fin photographs (fin IDs) to identify white sharks in Gansbaai, South Africa, from January 2007 – December 2011. We used the computer programme DARWIN to catalogue and match fin IDs of individuals; this is the first study to successfully use the software for white shark identification. The programme performed well despite a number of individual fins showing drastic changes in dorsal fin shape over time. Of 1682 fin IDs used, 532 unique individuals were identified. We estimated population size using the open-population POPAN parameterisation in Program MARK, which estimated the superpopulation size at 908 (95% confidence interval 808–1008). This estimated population size is considerably larger than those described at other aggregation areas of the species and is comparable to a previous South African population estimate conducted 16 years prior. Our assessment suggests the species has not made a marked recovery since being nationally protected in 1991. As such, additional international protection may prove vital for the long-term conservation of this threatened species.}, number={6}, journal={PLoS ONE}, author={Towner, A.V. and Wcisel, M.A. and Reisinger, R.R. and Edwards, D. and Jewell, O.J.D.}, year={2013} } @article{jewell_wcisel_2012, title={A leatherback turtle stranding at Danger Point, Gansbaai, South Africa}, volume={42}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84872040090&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.3957/056.042.0210}, abstractNote={A dead, mature male leatherback turtle was sighted at Danger Point, Gansbaai on South Africa's southwest coast.
