Tracking pygmy blue whale diving behaviour and validation of foraging areas defined from horizontal movement data by Michele Thums, Luciana C. Ferreira, Andrew Davenport, Micheline Jenner, Luciana Möller, Grace Russell, Robert D. McCauley, Curt Jenner

“…Foraging in large vertebrates is often inferred from horizontal movement behaviour from satellite tracking data, but the strength of this inference has not been adequately verified. Here, nine pygmy blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda) were tagged with satellite tracking tags and pop-up archival tags (PATs) providing depth and accelerometry time series to determine where actual foraging occurs during migration. …”
