Between 1991 and 1993, Alaska harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) abundance was investigated during aerial surveys throughout much of the coastal and offshore waters from Bristol Bay in the eastern Bering…

In an attempt to test the effectiveness of sounds in deterring harbor porpoises from nets and reducing porpoise bycatch in gill net fisheries, two harbor porpoises, kept in a large…
Clinical hematology values were determined for 29 harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) released from herring weirs in the Bay of Fundy, Canada. Erythrocyte values exhibited narrow ranges, but there was a…
(...) Each year between February and May, immature harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) strand along the mid-Atlantic coast of the United States (Haley and Read 1993). Occasionally, harbor porpoises strand alive,…
(...) Gaskin (1984, 1992) suggested that harbor porpoises in the northwestern Atlantic are partitioned into three subpopulations: Bay of Fundy/Gulf of Maine, Eastern Newfoundland, and Gulf of St. Lawrence (see…
(...) In the preceding communication K. A. Tolley states (twice) that Gao and Gaskin (1996) committed “serious interpretive errors that neither support their results nor the recent literature.” Needless to…

A total of 433 skulls of harbor porpoises, Phocoena phocoena, were examined to evaluate geographical variation within the western North Atlantic, using analysis of covariance and discriminant analysis based on…
Blood chemistry values were measured from 31 harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) released from herring weirs in the Bay of Fundy, Canada. Sodium, phosphorus, calcium, chloride, magnesium, total protein, albumin, globulin,…
(...) Harbor porpoises are assumed to have colonized the Black Sea from the Atlantic Ocean (Gaskin 1982, Rosel 1997). This hypothesized relationship is based on both geographical proximity and genetic…
