What do humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae (Cetartiodactyla: Balaenopteridae) pairs do after tagging?

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2014
The social structure of humpback whales in their tropical wintering grounds is very fluid. To date, no information has been published for cases in which two whales were both satellite-tagged while in association.

More of the same: allopatric humpback whale populations share acoustic repertoire [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Background Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a widespread, vocal baleen whale best known for producing song, a complex, repetitive, geographically distinct acoustic signal sung by males, predominantly in a breeding context.

The Beat Goes On: Humpback Whale Song Seasonality in Antarctic and South African Waters

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Little is known of the movements and seasonal occurrence of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) of South Africa and the Antarctic, populations once brought to near extinction by historic commercial whaling.

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

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 ...

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.

Foraging movements of humpback whales relate to the lateral and vertical distribution of capelin in the Barents Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Understanding how individual animals modulate their behaviour and movement patterns in response to environmental variability plays a central role in behavioural ecology.

NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 2009
The abundances of large whale species are presented for the northeast Atlantic from near-complete survey coverage in 1995 and from multiple partial-area surveys during 1996-2001.

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 ...
