Many gregarious species require complex patterns of communication for maintaining
coordinated behaviors, articulated social structure and group cohesion. In mammal species …

Acoustic communication is a taxonomically widespread phenomenon, crucial for social
animals. We evaluate social sounds from bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) of …

Dolphins are known for their complex vocal communication, not least because of their
capacity for acoustic plasticity. Paradoxically, we know little about their capacity for flexible …

Background Prioritizing grou**s of organisms or 'units' below the species level is a critical
issue for conservation purposes. Several techniques encompassing different time-frames …

This paper examines the controversy around marine animal management in Taiwan Strait,
where the sea has been territorialized by offshore wind power developers. Concerns have …

Frequency modulation (FM) is believed to play a major role in encoding information in tonal
vocal communication. However, most studies aimed at investigating acoustic variability rely …

Portions of this work were presented in “Using biologging technology to study vocal
sequences in narwhals” at the Easter meeting of the Association for the Study of Animal …

When implementing conservation strategies involving passive acoustic monitoring, an
accurate description of signal properties is crucial, especially when studying threatened and …

Simple Summary There is some evidence that the presence of dolphins in fishing areas
represents a concrete economic loss for fishermen due to their depredation activities on the …

Population-level differences in acoustic parameters of delphinid whistles may play a key role
in dolphin communication and social interactions by aiding in individual differentiation or …
