Summary: Studies on marine mammal temporary threshold shift (TTS) from impulsive sources have shown small TTS magnitudes, mainly because much of the energy in tested sources lies below the subjects' range of best hearing. In this study of dolphin TTS, 10-ms impulses centered at 8 kHz were used to induce larger TTS magnitudes and assess the time course of hearing recovery.

Summary: This research presents a framework for computer-automated observation and monitoring of bottlenose dolphins in a zoo environment. By using convolutional neural network and Kalman filter, the study accurately estimated the location of the dolphins and studied their habitat use and kinematics. This research offers new insights into dolphin behavior and movement.

Summary: The study found that bottlenose dolphins in the Shannon Estuary are present year-round and primarily forage in the inner estuary area. Model predictions showed highly variable foraging behavior across locations, indicating that dolphin behavior changes over relatively small geographical scales.

Summary: Developmental studies of the dolphin oral and pharyngeal cavities were conducted using high-resolution endoscopy, MRI, anatomical techniques, and histology. Interesting morphological changes were observed in the oral cavity, while the histological study helped understand the function of the pharyngeal cavity. MRI and dissections were also used to better understand the pharyngeal diverticula of the auditory tubes.

Summary: Training/feeding sessions are important for welfare assessment of odontocetes in captive facilities, with different species showing varying responses. Variables recorded during sessions can be influenced by factors such as context and inter-species differences.

Summary: Little is known about the ecology of Indo-Pacific finless porpoise and Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin in Southeast Asia. This study describes their distribution and habitat preferences around the Langkawi Archipelago in Malaysia. Both species prefer relatively shallow waters, but differ in terms of detections, spatial distribution, distance from shore, chlorophyll a concentration, and seasonality. The study provides baseline information for conservation planning according to their habitat preferences.

Summary: In this study, sediment, notothenioid fish, and moss samples were collected from the vicinity of Galindez Island, Antarctic Peninsula. Pesticide, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH), and dioxin-like Polychlorinated Biphenyl (dl-PCB) concentrations were measured. The results showed that pollutant concentrations were below detection limits in sediment and moss samples, but were detected in the muscle tissue of fishes. Several compounds were reported in the fishes for the first time from the Antarctic. The study suggests that the low flow rate around Galindez Island may result in slow contaminant removal and long-lasting effects on the marine food web.

Summary: This study conducted the first seasonal boat surveys in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea of Turkey to understand the spatial distribution of cetacean species and assess the overlap with marine traffic. The study identified areas between Marmaris and Finike with high cetacean encounters and dense marine traffic, suggesting the need for restrictions on maritime activities in these areas.

Summary: This study investigates the population genetics and demography of the Mediterranean monk seal and reveals the presence of four populations in the Mediterranean Basin. The high levels of inbreeding and low genetic diversity in the Madeira population suggest a decline in the population due to human activities.
