Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and ...

First recorded ice entrapment of a beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) in east Greenland
Polar ResearchBeluga whales are rare along the coast of east Greenland and the closest recognized stock occurs around Svalbard. Here we report on an ice entrapment of an adult beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) in north-east Greenland.

Relation between beluga whale aggregations and sea temperature on climate change forecasts [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine ScienceClimate 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]
BiomimeticsBeluga 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.
