Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded along the southern North Sea: an assessment through metallic contamination.
Throughout the last few years, the southern North Sea has witnessed an increase in the number of stranded marine mammals, particularly the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). This species is subject to several potential threats such as exposure to contaminants, changes in food supply, marine traffic and fishery by-catch. The aims of this study were to investigate potential associations betwee...
متن کاملMulti-approach analysis to assess diet of harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena in the southern North Sea
Over the past decade, the distribution of harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena has undergone a southward shift in the North Sea, which has led to an increase in the number of stranded porpoises in its southern part. Since the changes in distribution and relative abundance of porpoises may be linked to the changes in prey availability, the aim of the present work was to investigate whether any ch...
متن کاملEcological and pathological factors related to trace metal concentrations in harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena from the North Sea and adjacent areas
There is growing concern about the health status of the harbour porpoise Phocoena phocoena in the North Sea and adjacent areas. The interaction between toxicological results (Zn, Cd, Cu, Fe, Se, Hg), stable isotope data (δ13C and δ15N) and the most common pathological findings, namely emaciation and lesions of the respiratory system, were investigated in 132 porpoises collected along the coasts...
متن کاملOrganochlorines in harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded along the southern North Sea between 2010 and 2013.
7 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 6 dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes (DDXs) and 8 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were measured in the blubber of 20 harbour porpoises stranded on the coasts of the southern North Sea between 2010 and 2013. The results showed that porpoises that died from infectious diseases displayed significantly higher levels of PCBs in their blubber compared to healt...

The Marine Animals Research & Intervention Network investigated the causes of death of marine mammals stranded on the continental coastline of the southern North Sea (Belgium and France, and selected cases of the Dutch coast). Since the end of the 1990s, a significant rise of harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) strandings occurred in the area, annual stranding average being less than 50 porpoi...
متن کاملThe Grey Seal (Halichoerus grypus) as a Predator of Harbour Porpoises (Phocoena phocoena)?
In September 2011, two harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) presenting extensive traumatic lesions washed ashore in Belgium. Similar lesions, with large parts of skin and blubber missing, had not been recorded before on harbour porpoises in Belgium but were recently observed in a number of cases in neighbouring countries. We compared the lesions with the mouth and teeth structure of possible p...
