Predicting spatiotemporal persistence of rare species: An example with North Atlantic right whales

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Knowledge of when species remain in specified areas is essential for survey design, conservation, and management. Using species occurrence data to predict persistence in space and time (i.e., presence of one or more individuals of the species of interest within a defined spatial area over a duration of a specified number of days) may be ...

Source levels of social sounds in migrating humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) [PDF]

, 2013
The source level of an animal sound is important in communication, since it affects the distance over which the sound is audible. Several measurements of source levels of whale sounds have been reported, but the accuracy of many is limited because the ...

Quantitative PCR assays to detect whales, rockfish, and common murre environmental DNA in marine water samples of the Northeastern Pacific.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Monitoring aquatic species by identification of environmental DNA (eDNA) is becoming more common. To obtain quantitative eDNA datasets for individual species, organism-specific quantitative PCR (qPCR) assays are required.

Humpback whales off Peru: new records and a rationale for renewed research. Scientific Committee document SC/48/SH1, International Whaling Commission, June 1986, Aberdeen [PDF]

, 1996
New records indicate that some Area I humpback whales are present in coastal upwelling waters off Peru and Chile during the austral summer, and thus apparently fail to migrate to the Antarctic.
