The feasibility of tagging harbour porpoises in Dutch waters
The tagging of harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocosena) with satellite-linked locators or time-depth recorders allows researchers to obtain data on the behaviour and ecology of this species. It is also a valuable tool to investigate the impact of human activities on individuals and a number of recent publications have highlighted that for porpoises in ...

Porpoises and their prey : Diet and foraging behaviour of Belt Sea harbour porpoises
The harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is a small toothed whale with a mainly coastal distribution in the northern hemisphere. As a marine top predator, the species can act as an indicator for early warning signs of ecosystem changes. At the same time, harbour porpoises are globally threatened by human activities and in need of conservation ...
