The Record of the Last Sturgeons Caught in the Po River (North Italy) Tells a Cautionary Tale of Reasons of Their Silent Disappearance

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 277-283, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Three sturgeon species—the common European (A. sturio), beluga (H. huso), and Adriatic sturgeon (A. naccarii)—coexisted in the Po River Basin until the mid‐1970s, representing centuries of bio‐cultural heritage for northern Italy's riverine communities.

Talking About the Weather: The Feasibility of Using Very High‐Resolution Optical Satellite Imagery to Monitor Live and Stranded Cetaceans Around the UK and UK Overseas Territories

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Monitoring live and stranded cetaceans can be expensive and logistically challenging, resulting in knowledge gaps. Very high‐resolution (VHR) optical satellites are considered a potential solution to addressing some of these gaps. Despite success at detecting live and stranded cetaceans, satellites have only been trialed on restricted ...

Use of satellite imagery to estimate distribution and abundance of Cumberland Sound beluga whales reveals frequent use of a glacial river estuary

Frontiers in Marine Science
Limiting disturbance in critical habitats is an important part of ensuring the well-being and sustainability of populations at risk, such as Cumberland Sound beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas). Using non-disruptive Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite

A Detailed Characterization of the Whistle Repertoire of Fraser's Dolphins (Lagenodelphis hosei) From the Lesser Antilles

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Fraser's dolphin (Lagenodelphis hosei) remains poorly studied due to its elusive behavior, rarity, and preference for deep offshore habitats. While dolphins use frequency‐modulated whistles for communication, detailed acoustic descriptions exist for only a few species.
