Growth and reproduction in harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) in Icelandic waters
NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 2003 A total of 1,268 harbour porpoises were obtained from fishing nets in Icelandic coastal waters from September to June in the years 1991 to 1997. Foetal sex ratio was 1.2:1 (male:female). The bias towards males increased further among older animals in the

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Studying habitat use of cetaceans that spend most of their lives underwater poses challenges, prompting the use of complementary methods. Non‐invasive methods, land‐based surveys (LBS) and passive acoustic monitoring (PAM), were used to characterize occurrence patterns of beluga whales, harbor porpoises, and vessels in the Saguenay–St ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigated the occurrence and whistle characteristics of small odontocetes in Wakasa Bay and Aso Bay, located in the coastal waters of the Sea of Japan, where ecological data are limited. Passive acoustic monitoring using A‐tag and SoundTrap was conducted from 2022 to 2024, with detections on 8.8% and 12.4% of monitoring days at ...

Harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) reactions to pingers
Marine Mammal Science, 2018 AbstractThe use of acoustic alarms (pingers) has been mandated in several gill net fisheries around the world. Even though pingers have shown to reduce the incidental catch there are still questions to be answered in relation to effective range, habituation and displacement. In the present studies, the vocalization behavior of porpoises was recorded in

Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) in the North Atlantic: Biological parameters
NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 2003 Biological parameters for harbour porpoises are reviewed throughout their range in the North Atlantic. Most information is based on studies of a combination of directed catches, bycatches and strandings.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT West Coast Transient (WCT) killer whales (Orcinus orca rectipinnus) hunt marine mammals along the west coast of North America from California to southeastern Alaska. However, little information is available on their seasonal use of nearshore areas and the relative importance of different parts of their range.
