Quantitative PCR assays to detect whales, rockfish, and common murre environmental DNA in marine water samples of the Northeastern Pacific.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Monitoring aquatic species by identification of environmental DNA (eDNA) is becoming more common. To obtain quantitative eDNA datasets for individual species, organism-specific quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays are required.

Adaptive Acoustic Monitoring for Endangered Cook Inlet Beluga Whales in Complex Soundscapes

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective conservation of the endangered Cook Inlet beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) requires comprehensive spatiotemporal data, yet monitoring efforts remain spatially biased, underrepresenting important southern habitats. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) provides the necessary broad‐scale coverage, but its expansion introduces ...

Possible Distress Sounds from a Stranded Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) [PDF]

, 2017
This note describes the sound production by a stranded humpback whale off the coast of Uruguay (35° S) in the Rio de la Plata estuary. No previous study of humpback whale sounds in Uruguayan waters exists, potentially due to the open sea habitat of ...

Dwarf Minke Whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) Mother and Calf Ecology in East and Southern Australia

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowledge of mother–calf pairs, migratory patterns, female reproductive cycles, and birth‐year calf development are all essential for understanding risks in these critical life stages and monitoring little‐known dwarf minke whale (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) populations.
