Beluga, Delphinapterus leucas, Group Sizes in Cook Inlet, Alaska, Based on Observer Counts and Aerial Video [PDF]
, 2000 Belugas, Delphinapterus leucas, groups were videotaped concurrent to observer counts during annual NMFS aerial surveys of Cook Inlet, Alaska, from 1994 to 2000. The videotapes provided permanent records of whale groups that could be examined and compared

Foraging ecology of ringed seals (Pusa hispida), beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas) and narwhals (Monodon monoceros) in the Canadian High Arctic determined by stomach content and stable isotope analysis [PDF]
Polar Research, 2015 Stomach content and stable isotope analysis (δ13C and δ15N from liver and muscle) were used to identify habitat and seasonal prey selection by ringed seals (Pusa hispida; n=21), beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas; n=13) and narwhals (Monodon monoceros;

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.ABSTRACT Episodic inundation regulates germination and recruitment from soil seedbanks, which are key processes driving vegetation dynamics in dryland floodplains. In the Murray‐Darling Basin, extensive floodplain modification and flow regulation have altered flow regimes so that anthropogenically controlled environmental watering is often required to ...

Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT Researchers often use offsets to control for variation in exposure or effort in GLMM‐style models for count data. In this paper, we study the case where effort is dependent on the underlying process of interest (e.g., Poisson intensity) and where inference focuses on prediction. We first examine a simple Poisson GLM, where we use simulation to
