Journal ArticleDOI
Oxygen declines and the shoaling of the hypoxic boundary in the California Current
Steven J. Bograd,Carmen G. Castro,Emanuele Di Lorenzo,Daniel M. Palacios,Daniel M. Palacios,Helen Bailey,William F. Gilly,Francisco P. Chavez +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spatial and temporal variability of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the southern California Current System (CCS) over the period 1984-2006 was explored using hydrographic data from the California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations program.
Journal ArticleDOI
Southern Hemisphere humpback whales wintering off Central America: insights from water temperature into the longest mammalian migration
Kristin Rasmussen,Daniel M. Palacios,Daniel M. Palacios,John Calambokidis,Marco T. Saborío,Luciano Dalla Rosa,Eduardo R. Secchi,Gretchen H. Steiger,Judith Allen,Gregory Stone +9 more
TL;DR: It is contended that while availability of suitable reproductive habitat in the wintering areas is important at the fine scale, water temperature influences whale distribution at the basin scale, a strategy that supports the energy conservation hypothesis as a reason for migration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Past and present distribution, densities and movements of blue whales Balaenoptera musculus in the Southern Hemisphere and northern Indian Ocean
Trevor A. Branch,Kathleen M. Stafford,Daniel M. Palacios,C. Allison,John Bannister,C. L. K. Burton,Elsa Cabrera,Carole Carlson,B. Galletti Vernazzani,Peter C. Gill,Rodrigo Hucke-Gaete,K.C.S. Jenner,Micheline-Nicole M. Jenner,Koji Matsuoka,Y A Mikhalev,Tomio Miyashita,Margaret G. Morrice,S. Nishiwaki,V. J. Sturrock,D. D. Tormosov,R. C. Anderson,Alan N. Baker,Peter B. Best,Philippe Borsa,Robert L. Brownell,Simon Childerhouse,K. P. Findlay,Tim Gerrodette,A. D. Ilangakoon,M. Joergensen,B. Kahn,Donald K. Ljungblad,B. Maughan,Robert D. McCauley,S. Mckay,Tom Norris,Shannon Rankin,Flore Samaran,Deborah Thiele,K. Van Waerebeek,R. M. Warneke +40 more
TL;DR: Blue whales avoid the oligotrophic central gyres of the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, but are more common where phytoplankton densities are high, and where there are dynamic oceanographic processes like upwelling and frontal meandering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistent leatherback turtle migrations present opportunities for conservation.
George L. Shillinger,Daniel M. Palacios,Daniel M. Palacios,Helen Bailey,Steven J. Bograd,Alan M. Swithenbank,Philippe Gaspar,Bryan P. Wallace,James R. Spotila,Frank V. Paladino,Rotney Piedra,Scott A. Eckert,Barbara A. Block +12 more
TL;DR: The predictable effects of ocean currents on a leatherback migration corridor and characterize long-distance movements by the turtles in the eastern South Pacific are described and high seas locations for focusing future conservation efforts within the leatherback dispersal zone in the South Pacific Gyre are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioural estimation of blue whale movements in the Northeast Pacific from state-space model analysis of satellite tracks
Helen Bailey,Bruce R. Mate,Daniel M. Palacios,Ladd M. Irvine,Steven J. Bograd,Daniel P. Costa +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply a switching state-space model to the satellite tracks of blue whales Balaen optera musculus in the Northeast Pacific to improve location estimation and gain insight into the migratory (transiting) and foraging (area-restricted search, ARS) behaviors of this population.
