Listen! ๐Ÿ”Š๐Ÿ‹ Did you know that whales produce a variety of vocalizations to communicate and navigate the ocean? ๐ŸŽถ Whale vocalizations encompass a wide range of sounds used for communication, navigation, and social interactions. Among them, "songs" are structured, repetitive patterns primarily produced by male whales during breeding seasons. However, not all whales sing. Some rely on other sounds for their communication and navigation. ๐Ÿ”Š Sound is crucial for marine mammals, including whales, dolphins, and porpoises, as other senses are less effective underwater. However, rising levels of human-made noise in the ocean are disrupting these critical communications, leading to stress, behavioral changes, and even physical harm. As part of the #OceanDecade, the "Arctic Whales and Underwater Noise" action, led by Dalhousie University, is using cutting-edge technology to understand the impact of noise pollution on Arctic whales and develop solutions to protect them.
