Heavy metals and selenium in stranded dolphins of the Northern Tyrrhenian (NW Mediterranean)

open access: yes, 1992
Heavy metal (Hg, Cd, Pb and Zn) and selenium levels were determined in striped (Stenella coeruleoalba) and bottle-nosed dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) stranded along the coast of Tuscany and Latium, Italy in the period 1987-1989.

Acoustic behaviour of Risso's dolphins, Grampus griseus, in the Canary Islands, Spain

open access: yes, 2013
The Risso's dolphin (Grampus griseus) is a poorly studied species, particularly with respect to its acoustic behaviour. The little we know about Risso's dolphin acoustics shows that they are an interesting case study given that they combine acoustic ...

Geographic and species variation in bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops spp.) signature whistle types

open access: yes, 2011
Geographic variation in the whistle vocalisations of dolphins has previously been reported. However, most studies have focused on the whole whistle repertoire, with little attempt to classify sounds into biologically relevant categories.

The vocal imitation of bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) signature whistles: their use in vocal matching interactions and their role as vocal labels

open access: yes, 2012
The bottlenose dolphin uses vocal learning to develop its own unique acoustic signal. This signal encodes the identity of the signaller, and is known as the animal’s signature whistle.

An integrated and adaptive management model to address the long-term sustainability of tourist interactions with cetaceans

open access: yes, 2009
Rapid growth in demand for tourist interactions with cetaceans in the wild constitutes a challenge to management. Short-term animal behaviour changes can have long-term biological consequences for individual animals and populations.

Whistles characteristics of common dolphins (Delphinus sp.)in the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand

open access: yes, 2009
Quantifying the vocal repertoire of a species is critical for subsequent analysis of signal functionality, geographic variation and social relevance. Vocalisations of free-ranging common dolphins (Delphinus sp) have not previously been described from New

Social and population structure of striped and Risso's dolphins in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The aim of this research was to apply genetic methods to a better understanding of the evolution of population genetic structure in two dolphin species inhabiting a shared geographic range in the Mediterranean Sea and eastern North Atlantic (ENA).
