And, last talk of the day, Ellen Jacobs talks @dtobioflow.bsky.social and how we are working to harmonize #PAM #harborporpoise detections across Europe. @mialybkaer.bsky.social

New post-doc Xavier Raick gave an overview of his work with year-round #minkewhale residents in warmer climates.

Section Leader @signesveegaard.bsky.social summarizes 12 years of porpoise #PAM results, highlighting the importance of conducting a #poweranalysis to understand the meaning of your results.

Sorting #otoliths is hard work! But Lousie Mau dedicatedly takes on the task to report on what dolphins are eating in East #Greenland.

Rikke Guldborg Hansen discussed her #tagging results on the declining #ringedseal population within their ice habitat.
November 7, 2025 at 3:02 PM
Yours truly presented the response of #spermwhales when being harassed by #Orcas off Andrea, Norway.
November 7, 2025 at 3:02 PM
Anders Galatius discusses the potential evolutionary reason for the slight #sexualdimorphism found in #white-beakeddolphins.

Next we have Line A Kyhn, former lab member, presenting results from our joint #USBL study, technology which needs more regulation as their presence dramatically reduces how much time porpoises spend in their habitat.

First up we have Prof. @jonasteilmann.bsky.social giving an overview of the hight ambitious North Atlantic #minkewhale #tagging project.

New paper! Here we report four opportunistic observations of orcas harassing adult male sperm whales near Andenes, Norway. In one instance of recorded audio one sperm whale, using a series of clangs and codas, appears to call to other sperm whales nearby when approached by a group of orcas. See 🖼️⤵️.

This week I'm out in the Danish #BalitcSea on the #SAMBAHII Project, working to monitor the remaining 500 Baltic #harborporpoise. Here, we are deploying a 4-channel array to calculate the #dectectionFunction, or the likelihood of detecting porpoise #echolocation in the study area.

Bonfires are pretty, but I consider myself lucky to round out midsommer off the coast of Møns Klint.

Last week, @mialybkaer.bsky.social, Ellen Jacobs, and I traveled to @vliz.be as part of the @dtobioflow.bsky.social project! We got into the nitty gritty to bring #porpoise pod 🔊 data to the #DataLake via @aquatictracking.bsky.social. Very excited to make this #bigdata 🔢📈 project a reality.

Often in first drafts I confuse my homophones and realize in the read-through I've used the wrong word. For example, here, I was trying to type pull the line taut, not taught.

However, what is with this grammar suggestion? What does 'train to the train' mean? How does it come from 'line taught?'

Surprisingly, USBLs were detected at ALL stations (‼️), indicating that USBL signals are far more prevalent than what is currently reported. As for disturbance, the presence of USBLs had a significant negative correlation on the probability of porpoise positive minutes (PPM) detected. 🧵3/6

The prevalence of ultra short baseline acoustic position systems, also known as USBLs 🔊, is understudied in #EuropeanWaters and its effect on marine mammals 🐋, such as the #harbourPorpoise, is mostly unknown. These systems are used in #geophysicalSurveys and during #trawling fishing activities. 🧵1/6

At #ECSconference2025 @crisbri.bsky.social made a compelling #BlueAnthropocene argument: that animals are living in a world heavily and historically influenced by us. #CulturalEcosystems require historical context.

Heading to #ECSconference2025 this weekend in the Azores! Exciting to take part in noise and SAMBAH workshops, and to present this observational report of #orcas harassing #spermwhales in northern latitudes. Paper forthcoming, but for now, stop by and see my poster, I'll tell you all about it!

Some days you're at sea counting whales 🐋 🐬.

Some days you're in deep with your code, solving puzzles👩‍💻🧩🔢.

And some days, you're stuck in an elevator with 700 kg of stones.

Ok ok, I get the hint.

Heading to the US for the holiday break, but the year's end in Denmark has been particularly pretty this season.

Merry merry, everyone. 🎄🇩🇰
