Seasonal and Diel Acoustic Occurrence of Sei Whales in Oregon, USA

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The behavior, distribution, and life history of sei whales (Balaenoptera borealis) are largely unknown in the North Pacific. We analyzed data from three bottom‐mounted acoustic recorders deployed 25 (shelf; depth = 300 m), 45 (slope; depth = 630 m), and 65 (abyssal; depth = 2860 m) nautical miles off of Newport, Oregon, USA that recorded ...

Comparing Drone and Vessel‐Based Imaging to Quantify Epibiont Coverage on Humpback Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetacean epibionts offer noninvasive insights into host health, physiology, and spatial ecology, yet quantitative assessments in wild populations remain scarce. Although vessel‐based observations may be limited by field of view and analyst input, unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs; drones) are increasingly used to monitor cetacean health indices,

Description, Detection, and Classification of Hawaiian Monk Seal Vocalizations Through Deep‐Learning Methods: Biological and Conservation Applications

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Hawaiian monk seal is a phocid Carnivore endemic to the Hawaiian Archipelago. This species was thought to be silent under water until the recent discovery that mature males produce at least six distinct calls year round, typically in bouts of two or more, with sound production linked to reproductive status.

Pathology and causes of death in stranded humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) from Brazil.

PLoS ONE, 2018
This study describes the pathologic findings of 24 humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) found stranded along the Brazilian coast from 2004 to 2016. Eighteen (75%) animals evaluated were found stranded alive. From these, 13 died naturally on shore and
