Spatial-based management for cetacean conservation: a Portuguese coast case study

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Cetaceans are critical indicators of ecosystem health, yet face significant threats from overfishing, habitat loss, and climate change. Key conservation strategies in the EU include Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), the Natura 2000 network, and Important ...

A fixed line transect network to monitor cetacean diversity in central-western Mediterranean sea

open access: yes, 2012
Cetacean has been widely studied in Mediterranean Sea since late 1980s but we are still far from a true comprehension of pattern of presence and distribution of the species, mainly due to the uneven spatial and temporal coverage of researches and to the ...

RAPID: Real‐time animal pattern re‐identification on edge devices, an open‐source tool for field deployment

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Automatic re‐identification of animals has significant potential to address pressing ecological and conservation challenges through improved population monitoring, individual health assessment and detailed behavioural analyses. Although numerous computer‐vision‐based solutions have been proposed and many achieve high accuracy, most remain ...

Application of DNA Methylation–Based Age Estimation to Construct an Age Structure of Humpback Whales in a Newly Emerged Wintering Ground Around Hachijojima Island, Tokyo Metropolis, Japan

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Using a noninvasive DNA methylation (DNAm)–based age estimation method, we investigate the age structure of humpback whales that newly emerged around Hachijojima Island, Tokyo Metropolis, Japan to uncover the role of this area for this species.

Cetacean Stranding Response Program and Spatial–Temporal Analysis in Taiwan, 1994–2018

open access: yesAnimals
A national cetacean stranding response program in Taiwan has evolved significantly in the past three decades. Initially co-ordinated by National Taiwan University from 1994, the program transitioned to the Taiwan Cetacean Society in 1999, and local ...

An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure.

Comparative review of entanglement risk assessments for cetacean conservation and management

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cetacean entanglement in fishing gear remains a major global threat that exposes persistent gaps in how fisheries management frameworks manage risk to nontarget species. Ecological risk assessment (ERA) offers a structured way to link exposure and consequences to an explicit statement of risk, but entanglement risk assessments vary widely in ...
