Social Exploitation of Extensive, Ephemeral, Environmentally Controlled Prey Patches by Supergroups of Rorqual Whales

Large groups of animals aggregate around resource hotspots, with group size often influenced by the heterogeneity of the environment. In

Sighting and environmental characteristics of humpback whale breeding habitat off Pacific Central America: comparison of Northern and Southern Hemisphere populations

Humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) populations worldwide have been recovering from whaling, albeit at different rates. A recent global review of

Habitat-Based Density Models for Three Cetacean Species off Southern California Illustrate Pronounced Seasonal Differences

Managing marine species effectively requires spatially and temporally explicit knowledge of their density and distribution. Habitat-based density models, a type

Kinematic Diversity in Rorqual Whale Feeding Mechanisms

Rorqual whales exhibit an extreme lunge filter-feeding strategy characterized by acceleration to high speed and engulfment of a large volume

Heavy with Child? Pregnancy Status and Stable Isotope Ratios as Determined from Biopsies of Humpback Whales

Understanding reproductive rates of wild animal populations is crucially important for management and conservation. Assessing pregnancy status of free-ranging cetaceans

Molecular Genetic Identification of the Sex of Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Hybridisation of an human Y chromosome clone (pDP 1007) with Eco RI restricted DNA from male and female humpback whales

Hierarchical Structure of Mitochondrial DNA Gene Flow Among Humpback Whales Megaptera novaeangliae, World-Wide

The genetic structure of humpback whale populations and subpopulation divisions is described by restriction fragment length analysis of the mitochondrial

Interchange and Isolation of Humpback Whales off California and Other North Pacific Feeding Grounds

Humpback whales feed in several high-latitude areas of the North Pacific. We examined the interchange of humpback whales between one

Southern Hemisphere Whales Wintering off Central America: Insights from Water Temperature into the Longest Mammalian Migration

We report on a wintering area off the Pacific coast of Central America for humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) migrating from
