Rövid leírás:
The last decade has radically changed our knowledge of the behaviour and ecology of seals, whales, and dolphins. This volume presents the technologies which have made this possible alongside the latest findings which have been made using them, as well as providing syntheses of current knowledge in this exciting field.

The last decade has radically changed our knowledge of the behaviour and ecology of seals, whales, and dolphins. This volume presents the technologies which have made this possible alongside the latest findings made. With contributions by those actively engaged in the field, the book includes syntheses of past research and provides a view of research objectives for the near future.
An important up-to-date insight into the current and future developments in a fast moving field, this book is fascinating reading for all interested in animal behaviour and ecology.
This book is an excellent compilation of some of the most recent developments in behavioural and physiological research in marine mammals by some of the world's foremost authorities ... highly recommended as a valuable addition to any library or collection.
