Southern Hemisphere humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) were heavily targeted
during modern commercial whaling operations, with some 216,000 individuals killed …

The recovery of whale populations from centuries of exploitation will have important
management and ecological implications due to greater exposure to anthropogenic …

Humpback whale populations migrate extensively between winter breeding grounds and
summer feeding grounds, however known links to remote Antarctic feeding grounds remain …

Photographic and genetic studies have revealed the complex population structure of
migratory large whales. Most research and management are geographically based, focusing …

Our understanding of the genetic connectivity of manta ray populations and the drivers that
shape genetic population structure is still limited. This information is crucial to identify the …

Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a cosmopolitan species and perform long
annual migrations between low-latitude breeding areas and high-latitude feeding areas …

The Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean (ASSO) has one of the highest densities of
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) compared to other polar and subpolar regions, which …

Satellite telemetry and animal movement models advance our ability to remotely monitor the
behavior of wide-ranging species. Understanding how different behaviors (eg foraging) are …

As species recover from exploitation, continued assessments of connectivity and population
structure are warranted to provide information for conservation and management. This is …

The migration routes of wide-ranging species can be difficult to study, particularly at sea. In
the western South Pacific, migratory routes of humpback whales between breeding and …
