The Genome of the Beluga Whale (Delphinapterus leucas). [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2017
The beluga whale is a cetacean that inhabits arctic and subarctic regions, and is the only living member of the genus Delphinapterus. The genome of the beluga whale was determined using DNA sequencing approaches that employed both microfluidic partitioning library and non-partitioned library construction.

Relation between beluga whale aggregations and sea temperature on climate change forecasts [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science
Climate change has been shown to alter the spatial distribution of whales and other marine mammals. Fast changing ocean temperatures may also affect the spatial distribution of whales at a finer scale, namely within populations, including aggregation ...

AMBWO: An Augmented Multi-Strategy Beluga Whale Optimization for Numerical Optimization Problems [PDF]

Biomimetics
Beluga whale optimization (BWO) is a swarm-based metaheuristic algorithm inspired by the group behavior of beluga whales. BWO suffers from drawbacks such as an insufficient exploration capability and the tendency to fall into local optima.

Estimating reproductive and juvenile survival rates when offspring ages are uncertain: A novel multievent mark‐resight model with beluga whale case study

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Understanding the survival and reproductive rates of a population is critical to determining its long‐term dynamics and viability. Mark‐resight models are often used to estimate these demographic rates, but estimation of survival and reproductive rates ...
