Our latest study is out @MEPS_IR 🥳
The first assessment of trophic ecology of #pilotwhales in Icelandic waters suggests narrow isotopic niche width and low intraspecific variation, contributing to future assessments of niche overlap among cetaceans in this region

We have a new paper out today in @CurrentBiology ! 🐬 Our research shows that variation in acoustic communication range, driven by habitat structure, predicts dolphin alliance group sizes!➡️sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @ResearchDolphin @NatGeoExplorers

The Coastal and Marine Ecology class got to tour the Marine and Freshwater Research Institute (Hafró)’s main research vessel, the Árni Friðriksson. Dr. James Kennedy, a researcher at Hafró and an instructor for UW’s fisheries management course, gave us the tour. Thank you again!
So glad me and the @uwiceland students got to do an impromptu visit of the flagship of @MFRI_Iceland today! Just a couple months ago many colleagues and students were onboard, sailing the waters of Iceland looking for 🐋 as part of an ecosystem survey.
You can even see our little home island in the very bottom of the picture 🤩
Iceland 🇮🇸 or Nature in all its glory!!
Amazing image of glaciers, ice caps, lakes & rivers, valleys, mountains and a long smoke plume denoting the activity of Sunhnúks crater! 🌋↙️ What else can we ask?

Hoping for another summer of recordings 🤞🏼
We did a little field trip last week to place our hydrophone back in the water. Hopefully it will be continuously recording the #sounds of the ocean during the whole summer 🎧🐋🦀🐟🐬🌊
