A risk‐based forecast of extreme mortality events in small cetaceans: Using stranding data to inform conservation practice

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2019
Effective conservation requires monitoring and pro‐active risk assessments. We studied the effects of at‐sea mortality events (ASMEs) in marine mammals over two decades (1990–2012) and built a risk‐based indicator for the European Union's Marine Strategy

Combining DNA metabarcoding with macroscopic analysis increases the number of detected prey taxa in the estimated diet for harbour porpoises

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Knowledge of animal diets is fundamental in ecology as it can provide insight into the structure, function and resilience of entire ecosystems. In this study we investigate the diet composition of the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), a small marine ...

Spatiotemporal and demographic variability in body condition of North Sea harbour porpoisesZenodo

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Bioenergetic models play an important role in assessing effects of anthropogenic disturbance on a marine mammal population. However, model application is hindered by knowledge gaps, including population composition, demographics and body condition.

[Polychlorinated naphthalenes in Harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena].

open access: yesRoczniki Panstwowego Zakladu Higieny, 1997
Concentration and composition of chloronaphthalenes (PCNs) were determined in blubber of two male and two female porpoises from the Gulf of Gdańsk. Porpoises examined died in the fishing nets in 1992. Polychlorinated naphthalenes were determined using capillary gas chromatography and high resolution mass spectrometry (HRGC/HRMS) after nondestructive ...
