Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Putative archaeal viruses from the mesopelagic ocean
PeerJ, 2017 Oceanic viruses that infect bacteria, or phages, are known to modulate host diversity, metabolisms, and biogeochemical cycling, while the viruses that infect marine Archaea remain understudied despite the critical ecosystem roles played by their hosts.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a resident species along the Portuguese mainland coast, yet knowledge of its stranding patterns and feeding ecology is scarce. This study presents a comprehensive assessment of strandings (n = 264, from 1980 to 2019) and feeding ecology based on stomach content analysis (n = 43 from 1997 to

Are we missing a mesopelagic-demersal coupling? [PDF]
, 2021 Despite demersal trawling monitoring programs are not aimed at quantifying mesopelagic organisms, they are recurrently captured as by catch between 30 and 800 m depth.

Developing the knowledge base needed to sustainably manage mesopelagic resources [PDF]
, 2019 Recent estimates suggest that the mesopelagic zone could contain a total fish biomass of 2-19.5 gigatonnes, roughly equivalent to 100 times the annual catch of all existing fisheries.
