Gas exchange and pulmonary stress variations during SCUBA and breath‐hold diving in open seawater
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Healthy, trained divers were studied before, during and after diving in open seawater with different techniques. SCUBA divers (diving to 15 or 40 m with air; cycling at depth) and breath‐hold divers (BHDs; sled‐assisted dives to 15, 25 or 40 m) underwent underwater and surface arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling.

Mothers' responses to relational savoring as a function of attachment: A qualitative study
Infant Mental Health Journal: Infancy and Early Childhood, Volume 47, Issue 4, July 2026.Abstract A person's state of mind with respect to attachment, measured by the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI), represents how the individual perceives, accesses, and processes attachment‐related content. One's state of mind with respect to attachment is thought to guide behavior in relationships, including caregiving relationships, and thus may have ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Accurate inference of sexual maturity is fundamental to interpreting marine mammal life histories and population structure. Using Bayesian logistic regression models with a hierarchical ordinal (HOF‐style) parameterisation and canonical analysis of principal coordinates (CAP), we evaluate skeletal metrics in the pectoral flippers of common ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT The presence of the franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei) at the northern limit of the FMA II was investigated using a range of methods, including monitoring of strandings, boat surveys, and passive acoustic monitoring (PAM). Franciscana strandings were recorded within the distributional gap between Macaé (22°55′ S) and Ilha Grande (23°09′ S ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Automated detection and classification of marine mammal vocalizations is critical for conservation and management efforts but is hindered by limited annotated datasets and the acoustic complexity of real‐world marine environments. Data augmentation has proven to be an effective strategy to address this limitation by increasing dataset ...

Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Microplastics have been identified in hundreds of species, with evidence of trophic transfer via contaminated prey. Sarasota Bay common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) serve as sentinels of coastal pollution, including plastics and chemical plasticizers. Previous research confirmed microplastic ingestion in these dolphins (100.0%, n =

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a resident species along the Portuguese mainland coast, yet knowledge of its stranding patterns and feeding ecology is scarce. This study presents a comprehensive assessment of strandings (n = 264, from 1980 to 2019) and feeding ecology based on stomach content analysis (n = 43 from 1997 to

Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 6, Page 1514-1529, June 2026.Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...
