First At‐Sea Identifications of Ginkgo‐Toothed Beaked Whale (Mesoplodon ginkgodens): Acoustics, Genetics, and Biological Observations Off Baja California, México

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2024, an expedition was conducted off northwestern Baja California, México, to find and identify the beaked whale species that produced the BW43 echolocation pulse previously recorded in this area and elsewhere in the North Pacific. There were five Mesoplodon sightings and 21 BW43 acoustic detections on both a towed array and drifting pole ...

The Truth About Soviet Whaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
I have always condemned (and to do anything more was not within our power or abilities) the illegal and sometimes destructive whaling by the Soviet Union.

Seasonal Abundance and Distribution of Cetaceans in a High Traffic Shipping Corridor

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recovery of many cetacean species coincides spatially and temporally with intensifying anthropogenic threats. We undertook multi‐year systematic surveys to quantify seasonal abundance and document the distribution of at‐risk cetaceans, which is needed to assess the impacts of increasing human activities in the Canadian portions of the ...

MONICEPH project: Monitoring cephalopods during whale-watching activity in the Azores (2020-2024) [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal
The study of oceanic cephalopods off the Azores Archipelago began decades ago with the analysis of stomach contents from sperm whales that were hunted for the whaling industry.

Talking About the Weather: The Feasibility of Using Very High‐Resolution Optical Satellite Imagery to Monitor Live and Stranded Cetaceans Around the UK and UK Overseas Territories

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring live and stranded cetaceans can be expensive and logistically challenging, resulting in knowledge gaps. Very high‐resolution (VHR) optical satellites are considered a potential solution to addressing some of these gaps. Despite success at detecting live and stranded cetaceans, satellites have only been trialed on restricted ...

Bio-Inspired Covert Active Sonar Strategy

open access: yesSensors, 2018
The covertness of the active sonar is a very important issue and the sonar signal waveform design problem was studied to improve covertness of the system.

orcAI: A Machine Learning Tool to Detect and Classify Acoustic Signals of Killer Whales in Audio Recordings

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acoustic monitoring is an essential tool for investigating animal communication and behavior when visual contact is limited, but the scalability of bioacoustic projects is often limited by time‐intensive manual auditing of focal signals. To address this bottleneck, we introduce orcAI—a novel deep learning framework for the automated detection ...

Modelling the effect of varying metabolic rate and cardiac output on estimated tissue and blood O2 and CO2 levels in an extreme deep‐diver, the goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris)

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐resolution movement data from Cuvier's beaked, or goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris, hereafter Ziphius, n = 8) tag deployments (4.1–19.2 days) were used to estimate blood and tissue O2 and CO2 levels. Acceleration and magnetometry data were used to estimate the locomotion cost (LC) from the relationship between activity and the O2 ...

Soviet Illegal Whaling: The Devil and the Details [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In 1948, the U.S.S.R. began a global campaign of illegal whaling that lasted for three decades and, together with the poorly managed “legal” whaling of other nations, seriously depleted whale populations.
