Audiograms and click spectra of seven novel and seldom-tested odontocetes
The use of auditory evoked potentials has been promoted as a means by which to collect audiometric information from odontocete cetaceans that are rarely encountered in stranding situations.

Annual and Seasonal Rainfall Variability in Mozambique During the Nineteenth Century
This paper presents the first annually and seasonally resolved reconstructions of nineteenth‐century rainfall variability for Mozambique derived from the analysis of extensive documentary evidence. It reveals spatially heterogeneous rainfall patterns with recurrent multi‐year droughts, episodic extreme wet events, and a strong coherence between ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Relational knowing as method and practice
Abstract This paper seeks to contribute to (re)building the capacity for embodied, place‐based relational knowing, transforming how we know and thus what we know. What is known, or sought to be known, is relations. How we know these relations is by already being in it: breathing, sensing, moving, listening, responding, affecting and being affected ...

A Public Dataset of Annotated Orcinus orca Acoustic Signals for Detection and Ecotype Classification
Killer whales (Orcinus orca) exhibit significant ecological and genetic diversity, with three primary sympatric populations in the Northeast Pacific: Resident, Bigg’s (Transient), and Offshore. Each population is characterized by distinct foraging habits,

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Correlates of variability in killer whale stereotyped call repertoires. [PDF]
Killer whales vocalisations include repertoires of stereotyped call types (Ford 1984). There is strong evidence that these vocalisations are learnt (Hoelzel and Osborne 1986; Bain 1989; Deecke et al. 2000; Yurk et al. 2002).
