Group‐Specific Variation in Heterodyne Frequencies of Biphonic Calls in Resident (R‐Type) Killer Whales Orcinus orca ater

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Biphonation—the simultaneous production of two independent fundamental frequencies within a single vocalization—is a prominent feature of killer whale calls, yet the factors influencing the presence and intensity of heterodyne frequencies, which arise from interactions between these fundamentals, remain poorly understood. We analyzed long‐term

Archaeocete-like jaws in a baleen whale [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2011
The titanic baleen whales (Cetacea, Mysticeti) have a bizarre skull morphology, including an elastic mandibular symphysis, which permits dynamic oral cavity expansion during bulk feeding. How this key innovation evolved from the sutured symphysis of archaeocetes has remained unclear. Now, mandibles of the Oligocene toothed mysticete

Largest baleen whale mass mortality during strong El Niño event is likely related to harmful toxic algal bloom [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
While large mass mortality events (MMEs) are well known for toothed whales, they have been rare in baleen whales due to their less gregarious behavior. Although in most cases the cause of mortality has not been conclusively identified, some baleen whale ...

Seasonal and Diel Acoustic Occurrence of Sei Whales in Oregon, USA

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The behavior, distribution, and life history of sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) are largely unknown in the North Pacific. We analyzed data from three bottom‐mounted acoustic recorders deployed 25 (shelf; depth = 300 m), 45 (slope; depth = 630 m), and 65 (abyssal; depth = 2860 m) nautical miles off of Newport, Oregon, USA that recorded ...

Respiration Patterns of Southern Right Whale (Eubalaena australis) Mothers and Calves in Southern Brazil

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Respiration is a key physiological process in cetaceans, closely linked to energy expenditure, behavior, and physiological state. Using drone‐based surveys, we quantified respiration patterns of southern right whale (Eubalaena australis) mother–calf pairs in southern Brazil across two reproductive seasons (2020–2021).

Skull Growth and Prenatal Development in Baleen Whales: Teeth to Baleen Transition in Ontogeny and Phylogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In my dissertation, I aim to add a new ontogenetic perspective to the study of baleen whale’s (Mysticeti, Cetacea) skull evolution. In Chapter One, I analyze changes in dentition in closely-related toothed whales (Odontoceti, Cetacea), focusing on beaked

A Global Compilation of Blue Whale Strandings

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine mammal strandings are common occurrences that attract public and scientific interest. Stranding data can provide important information for rarely sighted species, but while regional and national stranding databases do exist in some areas, cross‐database communication and data sharing are limited.
