📣Announcing the launch of SealMAP: Seal Mapping & Analysis Platform. This SMRU app allows you to explore & download the latest grey & harbour seal distribution maps for Scotland. You can also get estimates of density for your area of interest. Happy mapping! arts.st-andrews.ac.uk/shiny/smru/s... 🦭🗺️

New paper 🚨 very excited to see Angela Amlin's first PhD paper confirming the underwater vocal repertoire of Mediterranean monk seals published 🦑🦭🐋 @gordonhastie.bsky.social @joan-gonzalvo.bsky.social @seamammalresearch.bsky.social pubs.aip.org/asa/jasa/art...
Confirmed vocal activity of Mediterranean monk seals in the Inner Ionian Sea Archipelago, Greece
Mediterranean monk seals (Monachus monachus) are the world's rarest seal species, with fewer than 1000 individuals remaining across fragmented subpopulations. M

New research from the NMMF, the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment and LKARTS-Norway shows #minke whales can hear sound frequencies as high as 45-90 kHz, higher than previously believed and one of the first real-world measurements of hearing in baleen whales. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Direct hearing measurements in a baleen whale suggest ultrasonic sensitivity
Predicting and mitigating the impacts of anthropogenic ocean noise on marine animals is hindered by a lack of information on hearing in these species. We established a catch-and-release program to tem...
