The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

ABSTRACT The pygmy right whale (Caperea marginata) is one of the least studied mysticete species. To shed light on its geographic and seasonal distribution, we compiled archival acoustic recordings from 26 sites across southern Australia and developed a deep‐learning detector for pygmy right whale “doublet” vocalizations.

Records of beaked whales (family Ziphiidae) in Western Australian waters
Western Australia has an extensive coastline extending 12889 km (excluding islands) from latitude 35 degrees in the south to 14 degrees in the north. The extensive coastline intersects the distribution of many species of beaked whale. A total of 74 Ziphiidae were recorded as stranded along the Western Australian coast between 1940 and 2010 (70 years ...

ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.

Environmental DNA survey of the Winter Salmonosphere in the Gulf of Alaska
Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) are a foundation species around the north Pacific, yet many wild populations have experienced steep declines over the last decades associated with decreased marine survival. Due to limited sampling, our understanding of

ABSTRACT Most extant beaked whales have reduced dentition of one or two pairs of tusk‐like, mandibular teeth that erupt through the gum only in adult males. Additional teeth have been recorded in several species and genera. A juvenile Hector's beaked whale (SAMA M26434) having additional teeth was collected in South Australia and its skeleton and ...

Details of morphology and distribution of hepatic macrophages in cetaceans were investigated using the immunohistochemistry with an antibody (SRA-E5) generated against human macrophage scavenger receptor antigen. Liver samples were obtained from five species of cetaceans (Baird's beaked whales, short-finned pilot whales, Risso's dolphins, bottlenose ...

Among cetaceans, the Cuvier’s beaked whale is considered an extreme diver, thus not one of the easiest cetacean species to be studied due to its elusive behaviour and a preference for deep offshore waters.

Description of the skeleton of the fossil beaked whale Messapicetus gregarius: searching potential proxies for deep-diving abilities [PDF]
Ziphiidae (beaked whales) are a successful family of medium- to large-sized toothed whales. Their extant members perform regular deep dives beyond the photic zone to forage for cephalopods and fish.
