TL;DR: This work applies a combination of recent individual-based landscape genetic approaches to investigate the population genetic structure of a highly mobile extensive range cetacean, the harbour porpoise in the eastern North Atlantic, with regards to oceanographic characteristics that could constrain its dispersal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-mortem findings and causes of death of harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded from 1990 to 2000 along the coastlines of Belgium and Northern France.
Thierry Jauniaux,D. Petitjean,Cécile Brenez,M. Borrens,L. Brosens,Jan Haelters,T Tavernier,Freddy Coignoul +7 more
TL;DR: The cause of the increased numbers of carcasses in 1999 was unclear but did not include viral epizootics or net entanglement and a temporary increase in the porpoise population in the southern North Sea may have been responsible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioaccumulation of persistent organic pollutants in female common dolphins (Delphinus delphis) and harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) from western European seas: Geographical trends, causal factors and effects on reproduction and mortality

Moffat,Christina Lockyer,J.P. Boon +27 more
TL;DR: Porpoises that died from disease or parasitic infection had higher concentrations of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) than animals dying from other causes, and POP profiles in common dolphin blubber were related to individual feeding history while those in porpoises were more strongly related to condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concentrations of chlorinated and brominated contaminants and their metabolites in serum of harbour seals and harbour porpoises.
Liesbeth Weijs,Krishna Das,Ursula Siebert,Niels van Elk,Thierry Jauniaux,Hugo Neels,Ronny Blust,Adrian Covaci +7 more
TL;DR: In general, harbour seals accumulate less compounds and have mostly lower concentrations than harbour porpoises possibly as a result of a better developed metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy Metals Contamination and Body Condition of Wintering Guillemots (Uria aalge) at the Belgian Coast from 1993 to 1998
TL;DR: Observations tend to indicate a general redistribution of heavy metals within the organs as a result of prolonged starvation and protein catabolism (cachectic status).
