Looking for North Atlantic Baleen Whales: When are they coming to the Azores?

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2014
The archipelago of the Azores is like an oasis in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Surrounded by deep waters, those islands are a “must stop” place for every traveler, including, of course, cetaceans.

Characterizing Habitat Suitability of Long‐Finned Pilot Whales in a Key Conservation Region of the Southern Iberian Peninsula Using Satellite Tracking Data

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The waters surrounding the southern Iberian Peninsula are a key conservation area for the long‐finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas melas), particularly in the pelagic regions of the Strait of Gibraltar, the Alboran Sea, and the Gulf of Vera, where upwelling, complex bathymetry and frontal dynamics enhance productivity and prey availability,

Clicking in Shallow Rivers : Short-Range Echolocation of Irrawaddy and Ganges River Dolphins in a Shallow, Acoustically Complex Habitat [PDF]

, 2013
Toothed whales (Cetacea, odontoceti) use biosonar to navigate their environment and to find and catch prey. All studied toothed whale species have evolved highly directional, high-amplitude ultrasonic clicks suited for long-range echolocation of prey in ...

Mitogenomic and Ecological Perspectives on the Wide‐Ridged Indo‐Pacific Finless Porpoise Neophocaena phocaenoides: Toward Emerging Conservation Strategies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
IUCN‐defined extant distribution of the Indo‐Pacific finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides), overlaid with occurrence records, global Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), and Important Marine Mammal Areas (IMMAs). ABSTRACT Prior to this study, the narrow‐ridged finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis) had been extensively studied across East Asia,

The Flukeprint Files: Microsatellite‐Based Individual Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) Identification From Environmental DNA

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Humpback whales in the northeast Pacific show strong site fidelity and specialized feeding, but population structure needs reassessment. We tested non‐invasive flukeprint eDNA sampling and successfully genotyped individuals. Results recovered individual genotypes, showing this approach can support large‐scale, low‐impact studies of whale populations ...

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 2902-2924, September 2026.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Whistles characteristics of common dolphins (Delphinus sp.)in the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2009
Quantifying the vocal repertoire of a species is critical for subsequent analysis of signal functionality, geographic variation and social relevance. Vocalisations of free-ranging common dolphins (Delphinus sp) have not previously been described from New

Spatial Ecology of Jaguars in a Coastal Amazon Island Ecosystem

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACTUnderstanding the spatial ecology of large carnivores is critical for conservation, particularly in insular or fragmented systems where movement is constrained. Jaguars (Panthera onca) are especially informative because their behavior and diet are highly flexible in response to local ecological conditions.
