Balancing Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism, and Its Effect on Recovery Time in Freely‐Diving Steller Sea Lions (Eumetopias jubatus)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT As breath‐hold divers, marine mammals must coordinate their use of both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism to maximize their time at depth. One indication of the relative reliance between these two energy‐producing systems is the aerobic dive limit (ADL), defined as the dive duration where post‐dive blood lactate concentrations surpass resting ...

Blubber Cellular Integrity Through Decomposition and Its Implication for Histological Applications: A Study of Stranded Stock A Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine mammal strandings can provide unique and valuable insights into individual and population health, ranging from infectious diseases to anthropogenic threats. However, the level of decomposition of carcasses can interfere with the assessment of important indicators, such as an individual's nutritional status.

Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Microplastic Munchies: Exploring Microplastic Trophic Transfer Potential Between Two Key Prey Fish Species and Resident Common Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in Sarasota Bay, Florida

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Microplastics have been identified in hundreds of species, with evidence of trophic transfer via contaminated prey. Sarasota Bay common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) serve as sentinels of coastal pollution, including plastics and chemical plasticizers. Previous research confirmed microplastic ingestion in these dolphins (100.0%, n =
