Testing Tag Attachments to Increase the Attachment Duration of Archival Tags on Baleen Whales
Background: As biologging technology has advanced to study whale behavior, various tag attachment methods have been developed. Suction cup attachments
Hydrodynamic Properties of Fin Whale Flippers Predict Maximum Rolling Performance
Maneuverability is one of the most important and least understood aspects of animal locomotion. The hydrofoil-like flippers of cetaceans are
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
Development of an Automated Method of Detecting Stereotyped Feeding Events in Multisensor Data from Tagged Rorqual Whales
The introduction of animal-borne, multisensor tags has opened up many opportunities for ecological research, making previously inaccessible species and behaviors
Prey-Mediated Behavioral Responses of Feeding Blue Whales in Controlled Sound Exposure Experiments
Behavioral response studies provide significant insights into the nature, magnitude, and consequences of changes in animal behavior in response to
Discrimination of Fast Click-Series Produced by Tagged Risso’s Dolphins (Grampus griseus) for Echolocation or Communication
Early studies that categorized odontocete pulsed sounds had few means of discriminating signals used for biosonar-based foraging from those used
Selective Retention of Polychlorinated Biphenyl Components in the Mussel, Mytilus edulis
The retention properties of PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) were examined in the mussel (Mytilus edulis) over a period of 89 days.
