Bottlenose Dolphin Hydrodynamics Research
Data collected thus far, including surface photography, and underwater high definition video footage, have provided answers to many initial questions while providing opportunities for further studies, such as, dolphin burst speeds used in catching fast swimming fish and/or avoiding predatory attacks.

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

Lobomycosis in Offshore Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus), North Carolina
Lacazia loboi, a cutaneous fungus, is found in humans and dolphins from transitional tropical (Florida) and tropical (South America) regions. We report 2 cases of lobomycosis in stranded bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and 1 case of lobomycosis ...

The claustrum of the bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus (Montagu 1821)
The mammalian claustrum is involved in processing sensory information from the environment. The claustrum is reciprocally connected to the visual cortex and these projections, at least in carnivores, display a clear retinotopic distribution.

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)
ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

ABSTRACT The pygmy right whale (Caperea marginata) is one of the least studied mysticete species. To shed light on its geographic and seasonal distribution, we compiled archival acoustic recordings from 26 sites across southern Australia and developed a deep‐learning detector for pygmy right whale “doublet” vocalizations.

Long-term correlations in the surface behavior of dolphins [PDF]
Here we study the sequences of surface behavioral patterns of dolphins (Tursiops sp.) and find long-term correlations. We show that the long-term correlations are not of a trivial nature, i.e.

ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.
