Killer whale (Orcinus orca) photo-identification in the eastern Canadian Arctic [PDF]
We identified individual killer whales (Orcinus orca) using recent (2004–09) photographs to obtain a minimum count of whales that use eastern Canadian Arctic waters.

Changes in dive behaviour during naval sonar exposure in killer whales, long-finned pilot whales, and sperm whales. [PDF]
Anthropogenic underwater sound in the environment might potentially affect the behavior of marine mammals enough to have an impact on their reproduction and survival.

Tidal energy is a clean and predictable power source commonly harnessed using horizontal-axis tidal turbines. The power generation process of these turbines is influenced by various elements, including the hydrofoil performance metrics such as the lift ...

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...

Maximizing eDNA detections of rare marine organisms: A case study of a delphinid species
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging tool for surveying marine organisms. Advances in molecular assay designs and bioinformatic methods provide new opportunities for detecting rare species; however, overcoming methodological challenges of rare species detection remains an important obstacle for the widespread deployment of eDNA methods for ...

Corpses are repositories of information about the cause of death. The distress of the bereaved acts as an honest signal drawing conspecifics to the body, enabling them to learn quickly about the death, adapt their behaviour, and spread knowledge of threats across multiple social levels.

Sociability Under Anthropogenic Change: From Individual Behaviour to Population‐Level Consequences
Our review synthesises empirical and theoretical research on how anthropogenic environmental change reshapes animal social behaviour from individuals to populations. We use sociability as an individual‐level lens, distinguishing context‐dependent expression from repeatable interindividual differences and linking both to social relationships, network ...
