A Review of New Understanding of the Role of Individual Structure within the Head of Dolphins in Formation of Biosonar Signal and Beam
In recent years a number of experiments and measurements associated mainly with the Atlantic bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and one with the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) have shed some interesting light on biosonar signal production and propagation in the head of the animals and the formation of the biosonar beam. In this short review, the results of these experiments will be ta...
متن کاملBony Nares Air Pressure and Nasal Plug Muscle Activity during Click Production in the Harbour Porpoise, Phocoena Phocoena, and the Bottlenosed Dolphin, Tursiops Truncatus
Sound production mechanisms have been studied in two delphinid species the harbour porpoise, Phocoena phocoena (L.), and the bottlenosed dolphin, Tursiops truncatus (Montagu). It was found that, in both species, the click sound production was coupled to a considerable pressure increase in the bony nares. The maximum pressure recorded in Phocoena was approximately 54kPa and in Tursiops close to ...
متن کاملSurvey on the Presence of Nematodes and Associated with Pathology in Marine Mammals from Turkish Waters
Presence of marine mammal nematodes in Turkey is poorly known. One bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and four harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded on the Turkish coast were examined at necropsy between 2009 and 2012. Harbour porpoise stranded from Marmara Sea were only infected by three species of lungworms (Metastrongyloidea): Stenurus minor, Halocercus invaginatus and H. tauri...
متن کاملIdentification of highly brominated analogues of Q1 in marine mammals.
Three novel halogenated organic compounds (HOCs) have been identified in the blubber of marine mammals from coastal New England with the molecular formulae C(9)H(3)N(2)Br(6)Cl, C(9)H(3)N(2)Br(7), and C(9)H(4)N(2)Br(5)Cl. They were identified using high and low resolution gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS) and appear to be highly brominated analogues of Q1, a heptachlorinated HOC suspec...
متن کاملUsing marine mammal habitat modelling to identify priority conservation zones within a marine protected area
One common approach to marine conservation is the designation of marine protected areas (MPAs). Marine mammals have been proposed as a target species for such areas due to their role as indicators of ecosystem processes. In NE Scotland, a large multiple-use MPA has been designated to protect bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus. We used broad-scale surveys throughout this MPA to model habitat...
