A satellite-linked tag for the long-term monitoring of diving behavior in large whales

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2022
Despite spending most time underwater, the technology in use to track whales over large geographic ranges via satellite has been largely limited to locational data, with most applications focusing on characterizing their horizontal movements. We describe

Blood Rheology in Marine Mammals [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2010
The field of blood oxygen transport and delivery to tissues has been studied by comparative physiologists for many decades. Within this general area, the particular differences in oxygen delivery between marine and terrestrial mammals has focused mainly on oxygen supply differences and delivery to the tissues under low blood flow diving conditions. Yet,
