Cardiorespiratory coupling in the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) [PDF]
Introduction: The bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is an intermittent breather, where the breath begins with an exhalation followed by inhalation and an extended inter-breath interval ranging from 10 to 40 s. Breathing has been shown to alter both

Auditory oddball responses in Tursiops truncatus [PDF]
Two previous studies suggest that bottlenose dolphins exhibit an “oddball” auditory evoked potential (AEP) to stimulus trains where one of two stimuli has a low probability of occurrence relative to another.

An exploratory investigation into the microbial and cyanobacterial presence on skin epibiotia and orofacial lesions in estuarine common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) through metabarcoding [PDF]
Estuarine common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) inhabiting the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) have been documented with light brown skin lesions, loosely categorized as “algal sheens”.

Occurrence, residency patterns and habitat use of the bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops truncatus truncatus, on two Marine Protected Areas in Southeastern Brazil [PDF]
The common bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops truncatus, is widely distributed. However, information about its ecology and behavior in Brazilian waters is scarce especially about the ‘offshore’ ecotype, an Evolutionarily Significant Unit in the Southwest ...

Evidence for distinct coastal and offshore communities of bottlenose dolphins in the north east Atlantic. [PDF]
Bottlenose dolphin stock structure in the northeast Atlantic remains poorly understood. However, fine scale photo-id data have shown that populations can comprise multiple overlapping social communities.

Personality structure in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). [PDF]
Comparative studies can help identify selective pressures that contributed to species differences in the number and composition of personality domains. Despite being adapted to an aquatic lifestyle and last sharing a common ancestor with primates some 95 million years ago, bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) resemble nonhuman primate species in ...

Measuring auditory cortical responses in Tursiops truncatus [PDF]
AbstractAuditory neuroscience in dolphins has largely focused on auditory brainstem responses; however, such measures reveal little about the cognitive processes dolphins employ during echolocation and acoustic communication. The few previous studies of mid- and long-latency auditory-evoked potentials (AEPs) in dolphins report different latencies ...
