Predicting seasonal movements and distribution of the sperm whale using machine learning algorithms

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Implementation of effective conservation planning relies on a robust understanding of the spatiotemporal distribution of the target species. In the marine realm, this is even more challenging for species rarely seen at the sea surface due to their ...

Norrisanima miocaena, a new generic name and redescription of a stem balaenopteroid mysticete (Mammalia, Cetacea) from the Miocene of California [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Rorqual whales are among the most species rich group of baleen whales (or mysticetes) alive today, yet the monophyly of the traditional grouping (i.e., Balaenopteridae) remains unclear.

Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) Song on a Subarctic Feeding Ground

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Male humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are known to produce long complex sequences of structured vocalizations called song. Singing behavior has traditionally been associated with low latitude breeding grounds but is increasingly reported outside ...

Case studies on longitudinal mercury content in humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) baleen

Heliyon, 2022
Quantification of contaminant concentrations in baleen whales is important for individual and population level health assessments but is difficult due to large migrations and infrequent resighings.

Diet and life history reduce interspecific and intraspecific competition among three sympatric Arctic cephalopods

Scientific Reports, 2020
Trophic niche and diet comparisons among closely sympatric marine species are important to understand complex food webs, particularly in regions most affected by climate change.

First record of humpback whale songs in Southern Chile: Analysis of seasonal and diel variation [PDF]

, 2018
Male humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) produce complex, patterned songs that are traditionally recorded on their breeding grounds. In this work, we report results from the first continuous acoustic monitoring of a humpback whale feeding ground off
