Similarities and differences in gastrointestinal microbiomes between wild and human-cared spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata) in natural waters

Water Biology and Security
Despite the growing awareness on the importance of gut microbiomes, understanding marine mammal gut microbiomes remains limited due to difficulties in sampling. Spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata) are widely spread oceanic cetaceans, and there is a gap

Cetaceans Change Their Acoustic Behavior During the Airgun Noise of Seismic Surveys

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Seismic surveys introduce high levels of noise into the soundscape. Thus, a major concern is the effect of these noise levels on animal communication, especially for species with high hearing acuity, such as cetaceans.
