What can 55 years of studying bottlenose dolphins teach us? 🐬
This long-term program in Sarasota Bay, Florida, has helped researchers develop new technologies while improving the welfare of the animals.
With our @frantsjensen.bsky.social and led by Peter Tyack.

Happy Pride Month from the Marine Mammal Section.
We want to celebrate diversity and belonging that helps people thrive, both in and beyond our field.
Poster by our PhD student @saskiacathrin.bsky.social
Topics shared by us included limits in marine mammal modelling, case study of long-term wind farm impacts on porpoises, large-scale passive acoustic monitoring, and open-access data harmonisation for harbour porpoises.

The Strait of Gibraltar is one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world and is also home to an endangered population of long-finned pilot whales. Recently, @milouh.bsky.social & co showed that these whales now need to shout to make themselves heard over the noisy ships
