During nesting periods, seabirds are known to exhibit considerable inter-annual vari- ability in diets, yet little is known about the diets of pelagic seabirds during non-breeding periods. Over 5 yr (2005 to 2009), we studied dietary partitioning bet

Changes in Blubber Distribution and Morphology Associated with Starvation in the Harbor Porpoise (Phocoena phocoena): Evidence for Regional Differences in Blubber Structure and Function

To examine patterns of blubber loss accompanying a decline in body condition, blubber thickness of juvenile harbor porpoises in normal/robust body condition (n=69) was compared with that of starved conspecifics (n=31). Blubber thickness in the thorax

HEMATOLOGY VALUES OF WILD HARBOR PORPOISES (PHOCOENA PHOCOENA) FROM THE BAY OF FUNDY, CANADA

Autor: Andrew J. Read, H. N. Koopman, Andrew J. Westgate

Publikováno v: Marine Mammal Science. 15:52-64

Clinical hematology values were determined for 29 harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) released from herring weirs in the Bay of Fundy, Canada. Erythrocyte values exhibited narrow ranges, but there was a high degree of individual variability in count

Stratification and age-related differences in blubber fatty acids of the male harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena)

Autor: Sara J. Iverson, D. E. Gaskin, H. N. Koopman

Publikováno v: Journal of Comparative Physiology B. 165:628-639

Fatty acid composition of blubber was determined at four body sites of 19 male harbour porpoises. A total of 65 fatty acids were quantified in each sample. The array of fatty acids contained in harbour porpoise blubber was similar to those found in o
