We describe the development and application of a new convolutional neural network-based photo-identification algorithm for individual humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae).
We investigated the predator–prey relationship between baleen whales and killer whales by observing predatory scarring (rake marks) on the tail
As the ventral-tail fluke catalogues used to study humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) increase in size, the time and cost involved
This report provides updated West-Coast abundance estimates for blue and humpback whales from mark-recapture estimates based on photo-identifications work conducted
Climate change and increased variability and intensity of climate events, in combination with recovering protected species populations and highly capitalized
Despite efforts to aid recovery, Eastern North Pacific blue whales faces numerous anthropogenic threats. These include behavioral disturbances and noise
Animal-borne electronic instruments (tags) are valuable tools for collecting information on cetacean physiology, behaviour and ecology, and for enhancing conservation
