(...) Two separate predation events were documented off the coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia between the years 2013-2014. Both predation events occurred on small cetaceans from the Phocoenidae family:…
Harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena are unintentionally caught in gillnets. Although the effectiveness of by-catch mitigation measures has been evaluated many times, only a few studies have investigated the behavioural patterns…
Besides the already known low‐frequency components of the Phocoena echolocation pulse, a narrow‐band pulse of 0.1‐msec duration, with the main energy between 110 and 150 kHz and a source level…
The harbor porpoise, and other toothed whales, use a biosonar click sequence that resembles the sequence of cries used by insectivorous bats when hunting for and capturing prey. The temporal…
A trial was conducted in the Danish North Sea hake gillnet fishery in July to September 2006 to determine whether the spacing of the Aquatec AQUAmark100 pinger could be increased…
The underwater hearing sensitivity of a young male harbor porpoise for tonal signals of various signal durations was quantified by using a behavioral psychophysical technique. The animal was trained to…
