How to estimate age of old bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus); by tooth or pectoral flipper?
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Multiple techniques have been used for estimating age in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). The longest established technique is via counts of growth later groups (GLGs) in the longitudinal section of an extracted mandibular tooth.

Tracking arctic marine mammal resilience in an era of rapid ecosystem alteration
PLoS Biology, 2018 Global warming is significantly altering arctic marine ecosystems. Specifically, the precipitous loss of sea ice is creating a dichotomy between ice-dependent polar bears and pinnipeds that are losing habitat and some cetaceans that are gaining habitat ...

People - Marine Mammal Interactions [PDF]
, 2017 Our relationships with marine mammals are complex. We have used them as resources, and in some places this remains the case; viewed them as competitors and culled them (again ongoing in some localities); been so captivated and intrigued by them that we have taken them into captivity for our entertainment; and developed a lucrative eco-tourism activity ...

Linkages between human health and ocean health: a participatory climate change vulnerability assessment for marine mammal harvesters [PDF]
International Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2013 Background. Indigenous residents of Alaska’s Bering Strait Region depend, both culturally and nutritionally, on ice seal and walrus harvests. Currently, climate change and resultant increases in marine industrial development threaten these species

Estimates of Marine Mammal, Sea Turtle, and Seabird Mortality in the California Drift Gillnet Fishery for Swordfish and Thresher Shark, 1996–2002 [PDF]
, 2004 Estimates of incidental marine mammal, sea turtle, and seabird mortality in the California drift gillnet fishery for broadbill swordfish, Xiphias gladius, and common thresher shark, Alopias vulpinus, are summarized for the 7-year period, 1996 to 2002 ...

A Universal Biomimetic Approach for Making Artificial Antigen‐Presenting Cells for T Cell Activation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study shows a biomimetic silica microcapsule (SMC) fabrication method under mild conditions for making artificial antigen‐presenting cells (aAPCs). Inspired by marine biomineralization, peptide‐mediated biosilicification enables silica shell formation on emulsion templates. The resulting SMCs possess a core–shell structure, controlled fluorescence

Rescue, rehabilitation, and release of marine mammals: An analysis of current views and practices. [PDF]
, 1996 Stranded marine mammals have long attracted public attention. Those that wash up dead are, for all their value to science, seldom seen by the public as more than curiosities.
