This book was released on 2011 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boat-based photo-identification surveys of Pacific coast bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) were conducted from 1981 to 2001 in six study areas along the California and Northern Baja coastline: (1) Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico; (2) San Diego, California; (3) Orange County, California; (4) Santa Monica Bay, California; (5) Santa Barbara, California; and (6) Monterey Bay, California. Sighting histories and photographs from all six areas were integrated into one comprehensive catalog, consisting of 697 individuals, to analyze bottlenose dolphin movement patterns along the Pacific coast. Two hundred forty-five individuals identified in Santa Monica Bay from 1997 to 2001 were compared to the existing Cetacean Behavior Laboratory (CBL) catalog, containing 626 individuals identified in the other five study areas from 1981 to 2000. The majority of Santa Monica Bay dolphins (71%, n = 175) were matched to the CBL catalog, and were seen in all study areas, indicating that they belonged to the same population. Some analyses were carried out using both the entire CBL catalog and a subset of 397 CBL dolphins only sighted from 1996 to 2000, as some CBL dolphins seen only from 1981 to 1989 were possibly no longer in the population. The percentage of CBL dolphins seen in Santa Monica Bay greatly increased from 28.0% to 43.3% when using only the 1996-2000 data subset. Three hundred sixty-three of all identified individuals (52.1%) were seen in two or more study areas, of which 263 individuals (72.5%) displayed longshore movement reversals, with a maximum documented number of ten movement reversals. Minimum travel distances ranged from 59 to 965 km, with three individuals ranging over the entire study area from Ensenada to Monterey. The most rapid documented travel speed was 94.5 km/day for one dolphin observed traveling 189 km from San Diego to Santa Monica Bay in two days. Sighting frequencies ranged from one to 40 (mean = 6.98, SD = 7.16), with individuals sighted over a range of one to 20 years (mean = 11.65, SD = 5.22) in up to five study areas, indicating little site fidelity to any one region. These results reinforce the hypothesis that bottlenose dolphins are highly mobile and travel rapidly and extensively along the California and Northern Baja coastline in search of optimal feeding opportunities. The open, unprotected, and highly dynamic habitat structure characteristic of the Pacific coastline may account for differences between movement and residency patterns observed between Pacific coast bottlenose dolphins and populations in more sheltered habitats (e.g. Sarasota Bay, Florida). However, other factors such as food resource availability, water temperature, and intraspecies variability also likely play important roles in influencing ranging behavior.

Book Synopsis The Bottlenose Dolphin by : Stephen Leatherwood
Download or read book The Bottlenose Dolphin written by Stephen Leatherwood and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of their exposure in marine parks, movies, and television as well as their presence in tropical and warm-temperature waters around the world, bottlenose dolphins are among the most familiar of marine mammals. Since they are relatively easy to obtain and they thrive in captivity, these dolphins have been used in a great variety of studies. Work with the bottlenose has provided insight into the sensory mechanisms, communication systems, energetics, reproduction, anatomy, and other aspects of cetacean biology. This volume presents the most recent biological and behavioral discoveries of bottlenose dolphins from different regions and compares bottlenose dolphins as a group with other species of animals.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the localization/video method, vocalizations in a time window around submissive behaviors were localized and classified as having come from either dolphins engaged in the interaction or dolphins not engaged in the interaction. Vocalizations were emitted by interactants more often than expected, and by non-interactants less often than expected. Use of different vocalization types was found to vary depending on the context of the agonistic interaction. In addition, the sequence of vocalizations with respect to behaviors within the interaction mattered, with more vocalizations occurring after than before submissive behaviors. These results demonstrated that group-based analyses of vocalizations are insufficient and one must use techniques designed to focus on the level of the interaction in order to study communication and social behavior in dolphins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the 119 species of marine mammals, as well as for some other aquatic animals, sound is the primary means of learning about the environment and of communicating, navigating, and foraging. The possibility that human-generated noise could harm marine mammals or significantly interfere with their normal activities is an issue of increasing concern. Noise and its potential impacts have been regulated since the passage of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972. Public awareness of the issue escalated in 1990s when researchers began using high-intensity sound to measure ocean climate changes. More recently, the stranding of beaked whales in proximity to Navy sonar use has again put the issue in the spotlight. Ocean Noise and Marine Mammals reviews sources of noise in the ocean environment, what is known of the responses of marine mammals to acoustic disturbance, and what models exist for describing ocean noise and marine mammal responses. Recommendations are made for future data gathering efforts, studies of marine mammal behavior and physiology, and modeling efforts necessary to determine what the long- and short-term impacts of ocean noise on marine mammals.
