First record of humpback whale songs in Southern Chile: Analysis of seasonal and diel variation [PDF]

, 2018
Male humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) produce complex, patterned songs that are traditionally recorded on their breeding grounds. In this work, we report results from the first continuous acoustic monitoring of a humpback whale feeding ground off

Exfoliating Whales–Sandy Bottom Contact Behaviour of Humpback Whales

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Cetaceans are known for their intelligence and display of complex behaviours including object use. For example, bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) are known to rub on rocks and some humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) populations undertake lateral bottom feeding. Such underwater behaviour is difficult to observe but can play a critical role in the

Modeling changes in baleen whale seasonal abundance, timing of migration, and environmental variables to explain the sudden rise in entanglements in California.

PLoS ONE, 2021
We document changes in the number of sightings and timing of humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae), blue (Balaenoptera musculus), and gray (Eschrichtius robustus) whale migratory phases in the vicinity of the Farallon Islands, California.

The Role of Environmental Drivers in Humpback Whale Distribution, Movement and Behavior: A Review

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Humpback whales, Megaptera novaeangliae, are a highly migratory species exposed to a wide range of environmental factors during their lifetime. The spatial and temporal characteristics of such factors play a significant role in determining suitable ...

Male Humpback Whale Chorusing in Hawai‘i and Its Relationship With Whale Abundance and Density

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) with autonomous bottom-moored recorders is widely used to study cetacean occurrence, distribution and behaviors, as it is less affected by factors that limit other observation methods (e.g., vessel, land and aerial-based

Genetic tagging of humpback whales

Nature, 1997
The ability to recognize individual animals has substantially increased our knowledge of the biology and behaviour of many taxa. However, not all species lend themselves to this approach, either because of insufficient phenotypic variation or because tag attachment is not feasible.

ORCA-SPOT: An Automatic Killer Whale Sound Detection Toolkit Using Deep Learning [PDF]

, 2019
Large bioacoustic archives of wild animals are an important source to identify reappearing communication patterns, which can then be related to recurring behavioral patterns to advance the current understanding of intra-specific communication of non ...

Comparing the social signaling behavior of humpback whales in three group types on the Hawaiian breeding grounds using acoustic tags

Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2022
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are exceptionally vocal among baleen whale species. While extensive research has been conducted on humpback whale songs, gaps remain in our understanding of other forms of communication, particularly non-song ...

Synchronous seasonal change in fin whale song in the North Pacific. [PDF]

, 2014
Fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus) song consists of down-swept pulses arranged into stereotypic sequences that can be characterized according to the interval between successive pulses. As in blue (B. musculus) and humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae),
