Insult to Injury: Population Impacts of Sublethal Entanglement and Vessel Strikes of Common Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in Barataria Basin, Louisiana, 2011–2023

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Human interactions, specifically fishery entanglements (FI) and vessel strikes (VI), threaten marine mammals, including the Barataria Bay Estuarine System (BBE) Stock of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). We reviewed whole‐body photographs to estimate the prevalence of sublethal entanglement and vessel strike scars for 227 ...

Structural Variation in Whistle Patterns of Two Coastal Dolphin Species Co‐Occurring in the Southern Israeli Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Two coastal dolphin species, the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus—Tt) and the short‐beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis—Dd), co‐occur along the southern Israeli Mediterranean coast, where the critically endangered Dd population faces ecological pressures, potentially including competitive exclusion by that of the Tt ...

Group‐Specific Variation in Heterodyne Frequencies of Biphonic Calls in Resident (R‐Type) Killer Whales Orcinus orca ater

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Biphonation—the simultaneous production of two independent fundamental frequencies within a single vocalization—is a prominent feature of killer whale calls, yet the factors influencing the presence and intensity of heterodyne frequencies, which arise from interactions between these fundamentals, remain poorly understood. We analyzed long‐term

Population dynamics and habitat use of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops aduncus), Bunbury, Western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Coastal dolphins are increasingly exposed to a variety of human activities through the proliferation of coastal development. Threats to dolphins in near-shore environments include the loss of suitable habitat, increasing vessel traffic and tourism ...

Mind the Gap: Performance Limits of Automated Contour Extraction Methods for Individual Monitoring of Bottlenose Dolphins

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Reliable extraction of dolphin whistle contours is fundamental for scalable analyses of vocal identity, repertoire structure, and individual‐based acoustic monitoring. We evaluated four algorithms for fundamental frequency estimation of common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) whistles, leveraging a benchmark dataset of annotated ...

Comparison of nephrolithiasis prevalence in two bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
In humans, ammonium urate nephrolithiasis is rare in the Western hemisphere and more common in Japan and developing countries. Among a variety of risk factors, insulin resistance has been associated with urate nephrolithiasis in people.

Characterizing Habitat Suitability of Long‐Finned Pilot Whales in a Key Conservation Region of the Southern Iberian Peninsula Using Satellite Tracking Data

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The waters surrounding the southern Iberian Peninsula are a key conservation area for the long‐finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas melas), particularly in the pelagic regions of the Strait of Gibraltar, the Alboran Sea, and the Gulf of Vera, where upwelling, complex bathymetry and frontal dynamics enhance productivity and prey availability,
