Thermal Imaging and Biometrical Thermography of Humpback Whales
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017 Determining species' distributions through time and space remains a primary challenge in cetacean science and conservation. For example, many whales migrate thousands of kilometers every year between remote seasonal habitats along migratory corridors ...

Song complexity is maintained during inter-population cultural transmission of humpback whale songs
Scientific Reports, 2022 Among animal species, the songs of male humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a rare example of social learning between entire populations. Understanding fine-scale similarity in song patterns and structural features will better clarify how ...
