Check out this nice infographic on our recent study on killer whale responses to pilot whales sounds. Thanks @whalescientists.bsky.social for putting this together and spreading the word! 🤓🐳🔈 #bioacoustics #MarineMammals #whales #SciCom

A top predator on the run! New paper on aversive responses of killer whales to the sounds of long-finned pilot whales – out now in Scientific reports – open access: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Below a short summary of the main results. 🔈🐳🤓 #bioacoustics #MarineMammals #whales

A killer whale PostDoc! 🤯😍

🔊 This the season! Looking or two MSc students to tackle 1. vocal efficiency across pipit species and, surpsingly, 2. vocal tract anatomy of the great cormorant (bonus: I also have the heads to model hearing!) Drop me a line! I love people! :) docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Looks like some cool postdoc options here - including one on "Acoustic possibilities for Southern Ocean management dilemmas" 🎧🌊🚢🐳 #bioacoustics #MarineMammals

Pilot whales and killer whales – it get’s weirder! 🐳🤓 #MarineMammals

Join us at the University of Iceland! They are hiring an assistant professor in marine and freshwater ecology! 🤓 Lots of water available in and around the country, plenty of cool nature and a volcanic eruption every now and then! 🌊🐟🐳🌿🌋 english.hi.is/about-ui/wor...

Check out this cool meta-analysis on whale vocalisations and whether they might adhere to similar laws as human language. Including some of our data on killer whales! 🐳🎵 #MarineMammals #bioacoustics #animalcommunication

Recently finished 'The good whale'. Beautifully told, well researched and balanced podcast about the crazy story of Keiko returning to the ocean. Featuring our field site in the Westman Islands, South Iceland! 🐳🌊🇮🇸 www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Check out @cherinebaumgartner.bsky.social new paper on gene flow in killer whales from Iceland, Greenland and Norway. Super cool stuff! 🐳🧬🤓

Recently, the Icelandic Orca Project started a video series about our research and the tools we use. First up was me on acoustic research and interactions between killer whales and pilot whales. 🎵🐳 More cool videos to come soon! 🤓 www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBEf...

📢 Webinar alert! I'll be presenting my PhD research as part of the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust Winter Webinar series on Weds 22th Jan. Sign up here on Eventbrite: www.eventbrite.com/e/killer-wha...

Check out this new paper on acoustic occurrence of killer whales around Iceland! 🎵🐳🇮🇸

Hello Bluesky! My name is Anna and I’m a PhD researcher at the University of Iceland and the Icelandic Orca Project. I like whales 🐳 and sound 🎵 and all things marine 🌊. I am very happy that the science community seems to have found a new platform and am looking forward to connecting with you all!

Still time to apply 🎣🐙🌊🦭
