What a first day at the @marinemammalogy conference!

#smm2024

Awesome presentations, great science, old and new friends, what else?

[Fabien Vivier @fvivier89]

Tomorrow in the Meeting Room 1-3!

New collaborative publication between researchers from @IonianDolphinProject from @TethysResearch, @dolphinsarasota, @sb_dolphins, and MMRP.

Drone photogrammetry is accurate, rapid, and reliable for quantifying the age-structure of dolphin populations.

Introducing MMRPʻs newest PhD, Dr @fvivier89 !!
Fabien did a wonderful job of defending his Doctoral dissertation today - we couldnʻt be more proud of him. Huge congratulations, Fabien!!

New paper today in @royalsociety Biology Letters:
"Morphology of nares associated with stereo-olfaction in baleen whales". We argue that zooplanktivirous mysticetes may use scent to locate food, possibly putting them at increased risk of plastic ingestion

Massive congratulations to MMRPs @Liah_McPherson who has just successfully defended her MSc thesis on "the abundance and demographic parameters of spinner dolphins off Wai'anae, O'ahu". Our newly minted "Master of Dolphins" did an amazing job- we couldn't be more proud of her!

[MMRP Uni of Hawaii @MMRP_UH]

We are excited to announce the master's thesis defense of @Liah_McPherson, next Wednesday at 11:00am HST. Liah will present findings from her research on the abundance and demographic parameters of spinner dolphins off Waiʻanae, Oʻahu.

@uhmanoa @himb_soest Thank you for sharing!

[University of Hawaii at Manoa @uhmanoa]

🐬 @himb_soest researchers can now determine the age-structure of free-ranging dolphin groups using drone photography - This method will aid in monitoring and conservation of dolphin species ➡️ https://t.co/uGoe9obHiQ #UHMResearch

For our second @PlasticFreeJuly post, we are emphasizing the dangers of plastic pollution by highlighting an encounter with a spinner dolphin. This individual had a ring stuck around her rostrum. Read more in @_clacey s blog here:

What is the energetic cost of being a right whale? Check out our new paper in @J_Exp_Biol where we estimate the energy expenditure of southern right whales from their respiration rate and body condition loss

To raise awareness about Plastic Free July, all month MMRP will be posting about plastic pollution, the issues this causes for marine life, and the experiences our team have had when out in the field. Intro to the issue, by @_clacey here:
