Ecosystem scale acoustic sensing reveals humpback whale behavior synchronous with herring spawning processes and re-evaluation finds no effect of sonar on humpback song occurrence in the Gulf of Maine in fall 2006. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
We show that humpback-whale vocalization behavior is synchronous with peak annual Atlantic herring spawning processes in the Gulf of Maine. With a passive, wide-aperture, densely-sampled, coherent hydrophone array towed north of Georges Bank in a Fall ...

The Influence of the East Australian Current on the Regional Distribution of Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) migrate annually along the east coast of Australia, utilizing various habitats, including open embayments such as the Gold Coast bay (GCB) in southeast Queensland, for resting and social behaviors.

Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) Song on a Subarctic Feeding Ground

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Male humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are known to produce long complex sequences of structured vocalizations called song. Singing behavior has traditionally been associated with low latitude breeding grounds but is increasingly reported outside ...

Exploring the Use of Seabirds as a Dynamic Ocean Management Tool to Mitigate Anthropogenic Risk to Large Whales

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Vessel strike and entanglement in fishing gear are global threats to large whales. United States management actions to reduce human-induced serious injury and mortality to large whales have been inadequate, partially due to static, spatial protection ...

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.

Cetacean records along a coastal-offshore gradient in the Vitória-Trindade Chain, western South Atlantic Ocean

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Oceanic waters are difficult to assess, and there are many gaps in knowledge regarding cetacean occurrence. To fill some of these gaps, this article provides important cetacean records obtained in the winter of 2010 during a dedicated expedition to ...
