This report presents results of field trials of the POD, carried out in Pembrokeshire, UK, from August to December 1998. The POD is an acoustic data logger, designed to operate…
Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) are notoriously difficult to observe and become very difficult to see in moderate or rough sea conditions. Passive acoustic monitoring provides a complementary study method to…
Biological parameters for harbour porpoises are reviewed throughout their range in the North Atlantic. Most information is based on studies of a combination of directed catches, bycatches and strandings. All…
Sound plays an important role for toothed whales in foraging and communication. However, little is known about acoustic communication in the toothed whale species that only produce narrow band high…
A comparison of the acoustic waveforms of three different species, Phocoena phocoena, Phocoena sinus and Neophocaena phocaenoides of the sub-family Phocoeninae is made with the species Phocoenoides dalli of the…
Harbor porpoise, Phocoena phocoena vomerina, in Cook Inlet, Alaska, are managed as part of the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) stock. It is not known if this population is distinct from…
Three anomalously white harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) were reported from Turkish Seas. One of them was bycaught on 19 June 2011 in bottom gill nets off the eastern coast of…
We estimated the incidental mortality of harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) in selective salmon fisheries in southern British Columbia from reports received from federal fisheries observers (2001) and license holders (1997…
Anomalously white cetaceans are rarely seen, and only five records of white harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) are found in the literature. We provide an updated list of those records, and…
