A deep learning approach to photo–identification demonstrates high performance on two dozen cetacean species

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Researchers can investigate many aspects of animal ecology through noninvasive photo–identification. Photo–identification is becoming more efficient as matching individuals between photos is increasingly automated.

The span of correlations in dolphin whistle sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Long-range correlations are found in symbolic sequences from human language, music and DNA. Determining the span of correlations in dolphin whistle sequences is crucial for shedding light on their communicative complexity.

Resting Metabolic Rate and Lung Function in Wild Offshore Common Bottlenose Dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, Near Bermuda

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Diving mammals have evolved a suite of physiological adaptations to manage respiratory gases during extended breath-hold dives. To test the hypothesis that offshore bottlenose dolphins have evolved physiological adaptations to improve their ability for ...

Genome sequence of a gammaherpesvirus from a common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A herpesvirus genome was sequenced directly from a biopsy specimen of a rectal lesion from a female common bottlenose dolphin. This genome sequence comprises a unique region (161,235 bp) flanked by multiple copies of a terminal repeat (4,431 bp) and ...

Distemper in a Dolphin

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
To the Editor: Deaths caused by new members of the genus Morbillivirus, family Paramyxoviridae (1), have occurred in recent decades among phocine and cetacean species, particularly harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) in 1988 (2) and 2002 (3). Endangered Mediterranean striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) died in 1990 and 1991 (4), and common dolphins ...
