To improve our understanding of the stock identity of individual dolphins taken as bycatch in this region, we compared images of the dorsal fins of bottlenose dolphins that stranded with evidence of fishery interactions (FI+) to the Mid-Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin Catalog (MABDC). We obtained stranding data from NOAA Fisheries for 715 FI+ bottlenose dolphins from Virginia (VA), North Carolina (NC), and South Carolina (SC) from 1996 to 2019; approximately two thirds of these records included dorsal fin images. For records for which images were available, we applied restrictive criteria for image quality and dorsal fin distinctiveness and compared the remaining 145 distinctive FI+ individuals to the MABDC. We matched 18 dolphins to regional catalogs and assigned stock identity to 13 of the matches; two were from migratory coastal stocks and 11 were from small estuarine stocks in NC and SC. Our analysis demonstrates how the risk of bycatch varies across bottlenose dolphin stocks along the Mid-Atlantic coast, provides an important feedback information loop to stranding responders and researchers studying dolphins in the field, and informs conservation efforts to address bycatch of bottlenose dolphins in this region.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":18725,"journal":{"name":"Marine Mammal Science","volume":"42 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147299922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Upper jaws of the blue whale and humpback whale have triangular shapes that resemble delta wings. Such wings generate lift without stalling at high angles of attack. To test whether the upper jaw is acting like a delta wing, planform shapes of jaws were tested with multiaxis force transducer in a flow tank at angles of attack. These 2-dimensional models performed like delta wings without stalling. A CFD model of an inflated buccal pouch indicated that pouch drag could be modeled as a flat plate. Comparison of flume and CFD data, on the other hand, showed pouch lift as more dependent on its degree of streamlining.

However, detector errors like false positives (impacting precision, P; proportion of detected calls that are correct), and false negatives (impacting recall, R; proportion of available calls successfully detected) necessitate manual validation. Here, we demonstrate a tiered detection and validation approach to improve efficiency in sei whale (<i>Balaenoptera borealis</i>) call presence analysis that aims to maximize R while removing false positives. Using two detectors on eastern Canadian datasets, we tested multiple parameter settings, selecting one tier that captured only high-quality calls (High-P), one tier that captured most calls present but included more false positives (High-R), and one tier that balanced the P and R values (Mid). To assess daily call presence, validation proceeded sequentially across tiers from High-P to Mid to High-R. For each subsequent tier, detections were only reviewed from days in which sei whale calls had not yet been confirmed. For both detectors, using this tiered approach reduced the overall manual validation effort (number of detections reviewed) when compared to validating the highest recall original outputs alone.

Habitat suitability maps generated from model outputs revealed an eastern shift in distribution of optimal habitat over time. While relationships with static features and tide remained stable, associations with other dynamic features weakened and became more variable in recent years. However, these changing relationships tracked changes in environmental conditions (e.g., increasing temperature), suggesting individuals are not changing their inherent habitat preferences.

Harbor porpoises have high metabolic needs and are highly susceptible to negative environmental factors; however, no long-term studies have been conducted on wild populations to quantify the negative impacts of vessel presence on their behavior. To evaluate this impact on harbor porpoises in the Little Belt, Denmark, data from a static hydrophone array were used to distinguish porpoise click train events and quantify buzzes (vocalizations with an inter-click interval &lt; 10 ms), used as an indication of foraging and social behavior, and Automated Identification System data were collected to identify vessels within a 3000 m radius of the study site. Using generalized additive models, we showed that harbor porpoises were most active during the night in summer months but most often overlapped with vessels during the day in the summer. Generalized linear models showed that harbor porpoise buzz rate was significantly reduced in the presence of vessels, particularly during daylight hours in the summer when vessel traffic peaked. These results suggest that porpoise foraging and socializing are negatively affected by vessel presence. Furthermore, high porpoise density, which is likely driven by prey availability as found in other studies, may prevent animals from moving to less trafficked areas.
