A Global Compilation of Blue Whale Strandings

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine mammal strandings are common occurrences that attract public and scientific interest. Stranding data can provide important information for rarely sighted species, but while regional and national stranding databases do exist in some areas, cross‐database communication and data sharing are limited.

Density and Abundance of Cetaceans in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Based on a Spatial/Temporal Analysis of 1986–2006 Line‐Transect Surveys

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The abundance of cetaceans in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (ETP) is estimated using spatial/temporal density modeling and conventional line‐transect approaches. Line‐transect data are analyzed from 10 ship‐based visual sighting surveys from 1986 to 2006 that include 281,000 km of survey effort in a 19.4 million km2 study area.

Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Design of a Three‐Phase PWM Rectifier Based on Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm Optimized Fuzzy Control

Advanced Control for Applications, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
Schematic diagram of the whale optimization algorithm (WOA)–optimized fuzzy proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller. The WOA is employed to dynamically tune the scaling factor expressions and fuzzy control parameters (a(e)a(e), a(ec)a(ec), βpβp, βiβi), as well as the initial PID gains (kp0kp0, ki0ki0), based on the error (ee) and its ...

Nonlinear permuted Granger causality

Canadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Granger causality is an established, contentious method that seeks causal temporal connections via association and precedence. While not true causal inference, it assists in mapping networks of information flow that may warrant further study.
