Fishers’ knowledge as an information source to investigate by-catch of marine mammals in the South China Sea [PDF]
, 2017 Bycatch mortality is a significant driver of marine mammal population declines. However, there is little information available on patterns or magnitude of bycatch mortality in many heavily fished Asian marine systems such as the South China Sea (SCS). To

Using modelled prey to predict the distribution of a highly mobile marine mammal
Diversity and Distributions: A journal of biological invasions and biodiversity, 2020 Species distribution models (SDMs) are a widely used tool to estimate and map habitat suitability for wildlife populations. Most studies that model marine mammal density or distributions use oceanographic proxies for marine mammal prey.

Sea ice directs changes in bowhead whale phenology through the Bering Strait
Movement Ecology, 2023 Background Climate change is warming the Arctic faster than the rest of the planet. Shifts in whale migration timing have been linked to climate change in temperate and sub-Arctic regions, and evidence suggests Bering–Chukchi–Beaufort (BCB) bowhead ...

Genome sequence of an alphaherpesvirus from a beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) [PDF]
, 2017 Beluga whale alphaherpesvirus 1 was isolated from a blowhole swab taken from a juvenile beluga whale. The genome is 144,144 bp in size and contains 86 putative genes. The virus groups phylogenetically with members of the genus Varicellovirus in subfamily

Harbor Porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) Reaction to a 3D Seismic Airgun Survey in the North Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 The most common cetacean in the North Sea is the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). Underwater noise is increasingly recognized as a source of impact on the marine environment and seismic airguns were one of the first man-made high intensity sound ...
