The occurrence of humpback whales across the Hawaiian archipelago revealed by fixed and mobile acoustic monitoring

Marc O. Lammers et al.

Summary: Using acoustic recorders and a Wave Glider autonomous surface vehicle, humpback whale song occurrence was monitored across the Hawaiian archipelago during the winter and early spring months. The results revealed that the entire archipelago is utilized by humpback whales and suggested a more complex distribution pattern than previously known, raising questions about the presence of multiple subpopulations.

Adam S. Frankel et al.

Summary: The study found that the number and birth rate of humpback whales in Hawaii decreased when water temperatures in high latitude feeding grounds in the North Pacific rose. Long-term monitoring of whale populations is crucial for understanding how marine ecosystems respond to global climate change.

Sharp decline in humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) survival and reproductive success in southeastern Alaska during and after the 2014-2016 Northeast Pacific marine heatwave

Christine M. Gabriele et al.

Summary: Understanding the impact of ocean warming on marine ecosystems is crucial as marine heatwaves become more frequent and severe. A study using long-term monitoring data in Glacier Bay National Park reveals a significant decline in humpback whale reproductive success and survival following a marine heatwave in the Northeast Pacific. The decrease in survival and reproductive success is believed to be caused by changes in prey availability for the whales.

Male Humpback Whale Chorusing in Hawai'i and Its Relationship With Whale Abundance and Density

Anke Kuegler et al.

Summary: Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is an effective tool for studying humpback whale ecology and population trends, as it accurately tracks whale abundance through singing behavior. There is a strong correlation between sound pressure levels and whale abundance, demonstrated through a combination of visual and acoustic data. PAM proves to be a relatively low-cost, robust method for studying and monitoring humpback whales in their breeding grounds.
