  • Historical Population Characteristics of Bowhead Whales ( Balaena mysticetus ) in Hudson Bay

    Open AccessRené Reeves, Randall R Reeves et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2003

    Historical records of commercial whalers operating in northwestern Hudson Bay during the 19th century were examined for information on size, age, sex, and location of bowhead whales that were either sighted or killed. Correlations between body size and either oil yield or baleen length were used to estimate the relative age classes (calf, subadult, adult) of whales for which no explicit age-class information was reported in the whaling logbooks. …

  • Belugas and Narwhals

    Open AccessRené Reeves, Randall R Reeves et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2001

    In the course of the research reported in this issue, there have been few observations of tagged whales after release, and this may be unavoidable, given the remoteness, harshness, and darkness of Arctic field conditions. However, on those occasions when there has been follow-up, the results have been informative and useful. For example, observations of scarred tissue on the backs of previously tagged white whales appeared to confirm the supposit…

  • Bowhead Whales and acoustic seismic surveys in the Beaufort Sea

    Open AccessRené Reeves, Randall R Reeves et al.ARTICLEPolar Record1984References: 2

    Seismic survey activities in the western Beaufort Sea, involving ships and sound production, were monitored in autumn 1982 for their possible effects on migrating Bowhead whales Balaena mysticetus . The study, begun in 1981 by die Minerals Management Service of the US Department of the Interior, covered offshore waters between the Alaskan coast and 72°N. Distribution, behaviour and numbers of whales were recorded, and procedures were established …

  • The Alaska Bowhead Problem

    Open AccessEdward Mitchell, Edward D Mitchell et al.ARTICLEARCTIC1980

    The continued removal of individuals from the depleted Bering Sea stock of bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) by Alaskan Eskimos constitutes a risk of unknown magnitude to this last concentrated remnant of a once abundant, widely distributed species. The principal international forum for discussions of scientific, technical, management, social, and political aspects of the Bowhead Problem has been the International Whaling Commission. These disc…
