	Archived Data for Evolution of River Dolphins_2001 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Abstract: The world's river dolphins ( Inia, Pontoporia, Lipotes and Platanista) are among the least known and most endangered of all cetaceans.
		The four extant genera inhabit geographically disjunct river systems and exhibit highly modified morphologies, leading many cetologists to regard river dolphins as an unnatural group.
		Numerous arrangements have been proposed for their phylogenetic relationships to one another and to other odontocete cetaceans.

	C-Form April
		Cetologists take whale census for the same reason: to help the whales as best as they know how.
		Today, cetologists are trying to determine the population of different whales.
		When cetologists determine the area they want to observe, they cut the area into equal traveling paths called transects.

	CETACEA: Orcinus orca (Orca or Killer Whale) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		It seems each pod (or communities of pod, such as superpods where more than two pods congregate) has its own dialect, and this changes from pod to pod.
		Cetologists working in Canadian waters can now tell which pod is nearby simply by the differences in vocalizations.
		The degree of difference between pods' dialects reflect the degree of social interaction between the pods - for instance, if two pods' vocalizations are very similiar, then they interact with each other, maybe coming together as a superpod.

		To a whale-wise practical cetologist, this is unacceptable.
		Cetologists nowadays will not very likely agree with this.
		The sperm whale's brains are now considered to be large and complex, even comparable (in terms of size and complexity) to those of primates (Scarff 1980, McIntyre 1974).

	Getting Close To Nature: Whale Watching
		It was inspired by cetologists who, after going out on marine field trips, thought landlubbers would probably get a kick out of seeing whales and porpoises in their natural environment, and realized there's actually a pretty good chance of seeing one of these swimming mammals during a half-day outing.
		Boat captain Lin Kuo-cheng took cetologists out on research trips in the 1990s, and founded Sea Whale Tours in 1997.
		For him, as for other whale-watching operators, business grew for the first few years, though sustaining interest has proven to be a challenge.

	Welcome to Baja Whales!
		Currently the Makah Nation in Western Washington is resuming hunting and several native nations in British Columbia are also considering this new economic opportunity under the guise of cultural traditional rights.
		Although gray whales are not being hunted on a large scale, cetologists have serious concerns about the impacts of industrial toxic pollutants on their food source as well as the increase in collisions due to heavier shipping traffic.
		The increase in commercial whale watching has also been documented to have altered behavior and migration patterns and harassment has become a disturbing issue.

	Publications pre-1999
		The origins of this volume lay in the first workshop to bring together cetologists studying behaviour and those studying population dynamics and management - two disciplines that had sadly kept themselves rather too much apart.
		The final section details the progress made by five groups of research workers from different countries in the search for a management procedure which does not require more detailed information about stocks than we are likely to be able to discover.
		These cover subject matter from the collection of samples at sea and their preservation, through individual population studies, to the final section of the book which considers both the theory of interpretation and the applicability of the techniques for the management of cetacean populations.

	Orca Network Orcas of the Salish Sea, Part II
		Their diets, feeding strategies, patterns of movement, and of course their communication systems, vary widely between communities.
		Cetologists are just beginning to look at the differences in cultural adaptations between orca populations, and are coming to the realization that we are dealing with mammals that are capable of culture in the form of traditions and rules of behavior, much like us, and that meaningful communication may guide their behavior.
		According to a recent paper called Culture in whales and dolphins, published in the Journal of Behavioral and Brain Sciences: "The complex and stable vocal and behavioral cultures of sympatric groups of killer whales ( Orcinus orca) appear to have no parallel outside humans and represent an independent evolution of cultural faculties."

	Whale song (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		A whale song is the collection of noises made by whale s to communicate.
		The word "song" is used in particular to describe the pattern of predictable and repetitious sounds made by certain species of whales (notably the Humpback Whale) in a manner that to cetologists is reminiscent of a human singing.
		Whales and other aquatic mammals such as dolphin s and porpoise s are much more dependent on sound for communication and sensation than their terrestrial cousins because the absorption of light by water makes sight difficult and because the relatively slow movement of water compared to air decreases the effectiveness of the sense of smell.

		It's not clear whether this is normal for the species, or for the family, although Mead says the pigment is also found in water buffalo milk.
		Cetologists won't even take a stab at the numbers or conservation status of most beaked whale species.
		Except for Baird's beaked whale and the northern bottlenose whale, they have not been systematically hunted, and by-catch records are rare.

		This is the first time Orcinus has ever been seen this close to the islands according to Pete Pyle and have never been seen feeding.
		According to cetologists in southern CA the Orcinus in question, which was billed as a calf by the media, was first observed as a young adult female in 1982 though there is debate over the size of the animal.
		She has been observed virtually every year since and has never been seen north of Los Angeles until this incident.

		I thought that more a detailed identification might be possible by help of cetologists because it seemed to me that the engravers had depicted whales with sharp distinctions across several species.
		I was present at the second Annual International Symposium of IBI at Kamogawa in Chiba Prefecture, in February 1990, and read a paper on archaeological studies of cetacean in East Asia.
		Taking advantage of the symposium, I received suggestions from a few cetologists and tried to examine the engraving of Ban-gu Dae my self.

	The Orcas of the Salish Sea
		Their diets, feeding styles, patterns of movement, and of course their communication systems, vary tremendously.
		Cetologists (researchers of whales, dolphins and porpoises) are just beginning to look at the differences in cultural adaptations between orca populations, and are coming to the realization that we are dealing with cultural mammals much like us, that determine their social behavior by the use of meaningful symbolic communication.
		Studying orcas in captivity is like learning all about Michelangelo by observing his paint brushes - it's what they do with their capabilities in their natural environment that is most fascinating.

	New Songs from Arabian Seas
		Readers of the ninth issue of Arabian Wildlife, for example, will recall reference to them among the region's cetacean rarities, which told of a population of humpbacks living in Arabian Sea waters off the Sultanate of Oman.
		This population has perplexed cetologists (those lucky enough to dedicate their time to the study of cetaceans) for many years, owing to the fact that it appears to comprise year-round residents.
		This is remarkable in that all other studied populations appear to migrate annually between polar feeding waters and tropical breeding waters.

	April 2005 General Meeting - Robert Pitman
		During the early 1980s, Soviet researchers described a new species of killer whale from Antarctica that purportedly lived in the pack ice.
		But the details were sketchy and over the years the findings were discredited and largely ignored by cetologists.
		During whale surveys in Antarctica over the last decade, I have been looking into the Soviet claims and I have found evidence that there may in fact be, not just one, but two new species of killer whales lurking among the ice in the Southern Ocean.

		If we except the obvious case of the humpback whale, our data are not numerous enough to imagine such a change.
		If the spinner and rough-toothed dolphins are clearly present year-long, the seasonal absence of other delphinids (melon-headed whale, Fraser's dolphin) from our records appears to be largely incidental, as confirmed by other cetologists observations (Jay Sweeney and Kristi West, pers.
		We clearly need new sets of data to study this seasonal aspect.

	Re: What are three kinds of scientists who study whales?
		Many scientists who work with whales simply call themselves whale researchers.
		They might also call themselves marine biologists, or perhaps even cetologists (whales are know to scientists as cetaceans).
		I know of at least one whale researcher who calls herself an oceanographer, but they're comparatively rare.
