Diving behavior and swimming speed of a free-ranging harbor porpoise, Phocoena phocoena
Otani, Seiji; Naito, Yasuhiko; Kato, Akiko; Kawamura, Akito
Marine Mammal Sci (2000)
(...) Our understanding of cetacean diving behavior has recently increased (Westgate et al. 1995, Heide-Jorgensen and Dietz 1995, Davis et al. 1996). However, there are few reports which measured swim…
Oxygen consumption and swim speed of the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena
Otani, Seiji; Naito, Yasuhiko; Kato, Akiko; Kawamura, Akito
Fisheries Science (2001)
The rate of oxygen consumption and energetic cost of locomotion of captive harbor porpoises Phocoena phocoena were studied in Hokkaido, Japan, using respirometry together with externally attached devices (a data…
Surface and dive times of finless porpoises in Hong Kong’s coastal waters
Beasley, I.; Jefferson, T. A.;
The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology (2002)
We studied the surface and dive times of finless porpoises (Neophocaena phocaenoides) in Hong Kong from three land-based survey sites in winter/spring 2000, to allow the estimation of the trackline…
Skin density and its influence on buoyancy in the manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris), harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), and bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus)
Kipps, E. K.; Mclellan, W. A.; Rommel, S. A.; Pabst, D. A.
Marine Mammal Sci (2002)
This study investigated how skin contributes to buoyancy control in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris), harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), and bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). Manatees are shallow divers and…

Journal of Cetacean Research and Management (2004)
A captive harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) was monitored for 80 consecutive days, 10 days before attachment of a satellite dive recorder and a VHF-radio tag, 30 days during attachment and…
