Seismic moment tensor catalog for crustal earthquakes in the Cook Inlet and Susitna region of southern Alaska [PDF]
, 2018 We determine moment tensor solutions for 53 earthquakes in southern Alaska, which include 9 in Beluga, 22 in Cook Inlet, and 22 in Susitna. The moment tensors were estimated using both the waveforms and the first-motion polarities.

Underwater Noise from Arctic Shipping: Impacts, Regulations and Recommendations [PDF]
, 2017 Marine mammals, including whales, walrus, and seals, rely heavily on sounds for survival. The Arctic soundscape has long been shaped by their clicks and calls.

Do belugas send sound cues? -Experimental verification of blindfolded imitation among beluga-
International Journal of Comparative PsychologyDolphins are able to successfully coordinate their behavior using audio signals. Therefore, the current study tested whether or not belugas can use sound to exchange information in a cooperative task and verified the mechanisms of the transmission of information during trials. The subjects are two male belugas, Nack and Duke. Nack was trained to rotate

Noise levels and sources in the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary and the St. Lawrence River Estuary [PDF]
, 2005 Although ambient (background) noise in the ocean is a topic that has been widely studied since pre-World War II, the effects of noise on marine organisms has only been a focus of concern for the last 25 years.

Endangered Species ResearchIdentifying habitat functions is crucial for understanding how endangered populations such as the St. Lawrence Estuary (SLE) beluga Delphinapterus leucas use their environment, and for guiding effective conservation measures. Often, the only way to infer

Bester (beluga ♀ × starlet ♂) production and comparing their growth with beluga in Iran
, 2009 Aquaculture for human consuming species is being considered as the first substitution of catching aquatic species due to increase of human population and decrease of wild aquatic stocks. In this study, the hybrid sturgeon Bester (female beluga x male sterlet ) was produced for the first time in Iran. Sperm of 1.35 kg male Acipenser ruthenus was used to

Generalized Perceptual Linear Prediction (gPLP) Features for Animal Vocalization Analysis [PDF]
, 2006 A new feature extraction model, generalized perceptual linear prediction (gPLP), is developed to calculate a set of perceptually relevant features for digital signal analysis of animalvocalizations.
