Clinical relevance of novel Otarine herpesvirus-3 in California sea lions (Zalophus californianus): lymphoma, esophageal ulcers, and strandings

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2012
Herpesviruses have been recognized in marine mammals, but their clinical relevance is not always easy to assess. A novel otarine herpesvirus-3 (OtHV3) was detected in a geriatric California sea lion (Zalophus californianus), and using a newly developed ...

Where do sea lions live? Interspecific interactions and abiotic factors predict Steller sea lion habitat.

open access: yesSpectrum, 2018
Habitat selection by species is dependent on both abiotic factors and species interaction. With regards to species interaction, competition and facilitation can play a critical role regarding how a species selects its habitat. Previous work has suggested

Winter movements and long-term dispersal of Steller sea lions in the Glacier Bay region of Southeast Alaska

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2018
Steller sea lions Eumetopias jubatus in the Glacier Bay region of northern Southeast Alaska experience greater survival and more rapid population growth than sea lions elsewhere in this region. To better understand demographics of sea lions in the region,

No evidence of metabolic depression in Western Alaskan juvenile Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) populations have undergone precipitous declines through their western Alaskan range over the last four decades with the leading hypothesis to explain this decline centering around changing prey quality, quantity, or ...

Are California Sea Lions (Zalophus californianus) Sensitive to the Attentional State of their Caretakers? [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2014
Human-animal relations appear in various contexts (homes, farms, zoos, aquatic parks, etc.) possibly favoring the emergence of the ability to understand heterospecific communication signals in several species.

Changes in the overwintering diet of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) in relation to the 2014 – 2016 northeast Pacific marine heatwave

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
Understanding variation in the diets of endangered species during critical time periods in their annual cycle is of utmost importance because of the effects that diet can have on vital rates and population trends.

Transcriptional Profiles of California Sea Lion Peripheral NK and CD+8 T Cells Reflect Ecological Regionalization and Infection by Oncogenic Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The California sea lion is one of the few wild mammals prone to develop cancer, particularly urogenital carcinoma (UGC), whose prevalence is currently estimated at 25% of dead adult sea lions stranded along the California coastline.

Sea Lion Optimization Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2019
This paper suggests a new nature inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm which is called Sea Lion Optimization (SLnO) algorithm. The SLnO algorithm imitates the hunting behavior of sea lions in nature. Moreover, it is inspired by sea lions' whiskers that are used in order to detect the prey.
