Sensory Ecology: February 2015
http://sensoryecology.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. Sunday, February 8, 2015. Four recorders retrieved, four more to go - next time, in March. After a week in Maui it is time to head back to Boston. Somewhat annoyingly, just as the weather has started to improve in Hawaii it has deteriorating considerably on the east coast. Such is winter weather. Tuesday, February 3, 2015. Back to Maui: instrument recovery, take one.

Sensory Ecology: May 2013
http://sensoryecology.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. Friday, May 31, 2013. One quick note on a separate subject. Our lab recently published a paper led by Max Kaplan. The paper documents the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on squid development and early life. It shows that these keystone and commercially vital taxa can be impacted but high CO 2. Levels. Ocean acidification. Tuesday, May 28, 2013. Daron's Navy Seal boa...

Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. Thursday, March 28, 2013. Squid resting near the laser setup (photo by K Katija). We have collected data for three squid projects in order to maximize our efficiency here. They include the squid hearing tests, squid-tag development, and measuring squid swimming abilities and efficiency. This third project is led by Kakani Katija. Tuesday, March 26, 2013. Lab at the Wood...

Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. Sunday, March 23, 2014. So with the success of these tests, tomorrow we head into the field. First some field measurements of how far we can detect the tag at sea We are also curious how well the tag floats in a wavy open ocean. If all goes well, we might even try to catch a squid and deploy the tag. Keep you fingers crossed! Thursday, March 20, 2014. Back to the Azores!

Sensory Ecology: Ocean Acidification
http://sensoryecology.blogspot.com/p/ocean-acidifcation.html
Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. The squid-centric view of life (from Clark, 1996). Nearly everything in the ocean feeds upon, or is food for, squid at some point. A paralarval squid used in our early OA experiments (photo by M. Kaplan). In our early OA work, Atlantic longfin squid ( Doryteuthis pealeii. An ecologically and economically valuable taxon, were reared from eggs to hatchlings (paralarvae) u...

Welcome to the Sensory Ecology Blog! Follow us on our research expeditions as we investigate how animals examine their underwater world. In this lead project we will examine the bioacoustic behavior of Hawaii's false killer whales ( Pseudorca crassidens. And melon-headed whales ( Peponocephala electra. This project involves multiple cruises off Kona, HI (the leeward side of the Big Island). One of our research boats. Tagging a melon-headed whale. Photo: A. Mooney, NMFS permit # 15530 to CRC).
