This review concentrates on the physiological responses, and their control, in freely diving
birds and mammals that enable them to remain submerged and sometimes quite active for …

This review highlights significant gaps in our knowledge of the effects of seismic air gun
noise on marine mammals. Although the characteristics of the seismic signal at different …

La profondeur et la durée maximales des plongées ont été étudiées en relation avec la
masse du corps chez des oiseaux, des mammifères marins et des tortues marines. Il existe …

The Argos satellite system is commonly used to track and relay behavioral data from marine
mammals, but their underwater habit results in a high proportion of locations of non …

Seals and commercial fisheries are potential competitors for fish and cephalopods.
Research into the diet of British seal species has been based on conventional dietary …

Grey seals Halichoerus grypus Fab. are large, numerous marine top predators. Fears
concerning competition with fisheries have prompted calls for control measures. However …

There is a relative paucity of data regarding the at‐sea distribution and behaviour of marine
turtles. This is especially true for the critically endangered green turtle Chelonia mydas …

The trophic relationships of both the benthic and pelagic communities in the Estuary and
Gulf of St Lawrence regions were examined, with a special focus on the trophic position (TP) …

Heart rate, swimming speed and diving depth data were collected from free-ranging grey
seals, Halichoerus grypus, as they foraged and travelled in the sea around the Hebrides …

Although diving birds and mammals can withstand extended periods under water, field
studies show that most perform mainly short, aerobic dives. Theoretical studies of diving …
