Inflation and deflation pressure-volume loops in anesthetized pinnipeds confirms compliant chest and lungs

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
We examined structural properties of the marine mammal respiratory system, and tested Scholander’s hypothesis that the chest is highly compliant by measuring the mechanical properties of the respiratory system in five species of pinniped under anesthesia

Adnocarcinoma of the Lung in a Steller Sea Lion (Eumetopiae jubatus).

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1998
The histological and ultrastructural characteristics of an adenocarcinoma of the lung are described in an about 16-year-old female Steller sea lion with a 1.5 month history of cough and anorexia. The animal had multiple neoplastic nodules in the lungs and diaphragmatic pleura. The bronchial and mediastinal lymph nodes were replaced by neoplastic tissue,

Supporting Risk Assessment: Accounting for Indirect Risk to Ecosystem Components. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The multi-scalar complexity of social-ecological systems makes it challenging to quantify impacts from human activities on ecosystems, inspiring risk-based approaches to assessments of potential effects of human activities on valued ecosystem components.

POXVIRUS INFECTION OF STELLER SEA LIONS (EUMETOPIAS JUBATUS) IN ALASKA [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2005
Lesions suggestive of poxvirus infection were observed in two Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) in Alaska during live capture-and-release studies during 2000 and 2001. Both of these animals, female pups in poor body condition, were from Prince William Sound; this population is part of the declining western stock.

Long-term remote monitoring of the rookery of Eumetopias jubatus (Pinnipedia, Otariidae) on Matykil Island in the Magadan State Nature Reserve (Russia)

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
The severe decline in the number of Eumetopias jubatus (hereinafter – Steller sea lion) almost throughout the entire range has drawn the public attention to monitor the abundance and increase in research activity of the species.

Inter-population movements of steller sea lions in Alaska with implications for population separation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Genetic studies and differing population trends support the separation of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) into a western distinct population segment (WDPS) and an eastern DPS (EDPS) with the dividing line between populations at 144° W.

Quantifying the Morphological Differences Between Fur Seals and Sea Lions

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The eared seals (family Otariidae) are divided into fur seals and sea lions, despite a lack of cladistic support for these groups. The division is primarily based on hair morphology, and it is unknown whether any other morphological signal differentiates these two groups.
