Diel periodicity in both sei whale vocalization rates and the vertical migration of their copepod prey observed from ocean gliders
MF Baumgartner, DM Fratantoni - Limnology and …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
The daily activity cycles of marine predators may be dictated in large part by the timing of
prey availability. For example, recent studies have observed diel periodicity in baleen whale …
