DOI: 10.1007/s10344-017-1111-8
Abstract: Cetacean strandings are a constant phenomenon that occurs on coastlines; mortality is related to several factors but commercial fishing is considered one of the main pressures, in the Mediterranean, that can impact small cetacean species… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2020.111677
Abstract: Microplastics' (MPs) abundance, small size, and global distribution render them bioavailable to a variety of organisms directly or by trophic transfer, yet examinations in marine apex predators are currently limited. The present study investigated the… read more here.

Re-evaluating the significance of the dive response during voluntary surface apneas in the bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops truncatus
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-45064-8
Abstract: The dive response is well documented for marine mammals, and includes a significant reduction in heart rate (fH) during submersion as compared while breathing at the surface. In the current study we assessed the influence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.212498
Abstract: ABSTRACT Toothed whales depend on sound for communication and foraging, making them potentially vulnerable to acoustic masking from increasing anthropogenic noise. Masking effects may be ameliorated by higher amplitudes or rates of calling, but such… read more here.
