Development of Beluga, Delphinapterus leucas, Capture and Satellite Tagging Protocol in Cook Inlet, Alaska [PDF]
Attempts to capture and place satellite tags on belugas, Delphinapterus leucas, in Cook Inlet, Alaska were conducted during late spring and summer of 1995, 1997, and 1999. In 1995, capture attempts using a hoop net proved impractical in Cook Inlet.

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.

Improved beluga whale optimization algorithm based cluster routing in wireless sensor networks
Cluster routing is a critical routing approach in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, the uneven distribution of selected cluster head nodes and impractical data transmission paths can result in uneven depletion of network energy. For this purpose,

Detection and Characterization of New Coronavirus in Bottlenose Dolphin, United States, 2019
We characterized novel coronaviruses detected in US bottlenose dolphins (BdCoVs) with diarrhea. These viruses are closely related to the other 2 known cetacean coronaviruses, Hong Kong BdCoV and beluga whale CoV.

Application of Suction-cup-attached VHF Transmitters to the Study of Beluga, Delphinapterus leucas, Surfacing Behavior in Cook Inlet, Alaska [PDF]
Suction-cup-attached VHF radio transmittes were deployed on belugas, Delphinapterus leucas, in Cook Inlet, Alaska, in 1994 and 1995 to characterize the whales' surfacing behavior.

Mercury-induced micronuclei in skin fibroblasts of beluga whales [PDF]
AbstractBeluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas) inhabiting the St. Lawrence estuary are highly contaminated with environmental pollutants and have a high incidence of cancer. Environmental contaminants may be partly responsible for the high incidence of cancer observed in this population.

Estimating Narwhal (Monodon monoceros) Age Using Epigenetic Analysis of Skin
ABSTRACT Age is an important parameter to understand species life‐history characteristics. Recently, DNA methylation methods have emerged as innovative tools to estimate the age of marine mammals. Narwhal (Monodon monoceros) epigenetic age estimates were computed using beluga (Delphinapterus leucas), killer whale (Orcinus orca), bowhead (Balaena ...
