Dolphin vocalization mechanisms

Although humans have difficulty whistling when in a habitat that is more than 20 meters underwater, dolphins can make certain sounds at great depths through a related mechanism. Other dolphin sounds, such as clicks and complex buzzes, are produced by vibrations of the tissue of the nasal plugs, apparently without the use of the larynx; in these instances, the air sacs act as reservoirs. This was determined from studies of Tursiops truncatus and Delphinus delphis with harmless ultrasonic beams projected noninvasively to determine movements of the air sacs.     

一例海豚误闯防鲨网窒息致死的典型案例分析

2009年2月1日,在珠海市三灶海滩上发现一头搁浅死亡的中华白海豚（ZH—SC-24）。该样本为青年雄性海豚,体格健壮。经过初步观察,在肺部发现一些白色结节,在上颚基部及颈部均有明显勒痕。肺部充满大量泡沫状血液,右心室内发现大块凝血。除此外尚未发现其它明显病变。综合病理解剖与搁浅现场调查结果,推测该海豚为误闯防鲨网窒息致死。     

Computer derivation of some dolphin echolocation signals

Recent advances in radar theory have given rise to a straightforward method of sonar signal design. The method involves computer maximization of a signal-to-interference ratio. The procedure has been used to derive sonar signals that can accurately measure target velocity. When two dolphins were placed in a situation conducive to the utilization of such signals, their waveforms were similar to those that had been theoretically derived.

江门中华白海豚自然保护区调整对中华白海豚的影响

从保护中华白海豚及其柄息环境并兼顾沿海工业的发展角度,提出了保护区的调整方案,并对功能区调整后对中华白海豚的影响进行了系统分析. Abstract： From the protection of Chinese white dolphin and living environment,and considering the industrial development in coastal areas,we put forward adjustment program for Jiangmen Chinese White Dolphin Provincial Nature Reserve.Meanwhile we analyzed the feasibility of this program by systematically focusing the effect of adjusted functional regions on Chinese white dolphin.     

三黄连合剂对罗非鱼人工感染海豚链球菌病的预防效果

[目的]探讨三黄连合剂对由海豚链球菌感染罗非鱼发病的预防效果,为罗非鱼链球菌病的免疫防治提供参考依据.[方法]分别以含30、60、120 mL/kg三黄连合剂的饵料投喂吉富罗非鱼,连续投喂7d,给药后第8d进行人工感染海豚链球菌,感染后第7d测定脾脏指数,同时于感染后0、12、24 h和7d采集血清样本,检测超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、溶菌酶(LSZ)、碱性磷酸酶(AKP)、血清补体C3、IgM抗体水平等免疫学指标.[结果]三黄连合剂连续给药7d对吉富罗非鱼血清免疫指标均有一定影响,可显著提高吉富罗非鱼血清SOD活性(P＜0.05,下同).人工感染海豚链球菌后第7d,3个三黄连合剂处理组的罗非鱼脾脏指数较感染不给药组明显升高;在免疫指标方面,高剂量组(120mL/kg)罗非鱼的血清SOD活性、AKP活性、LSZ活性、补体C3活性、IgM抗体水平均显著或极显著(P＜0.01)高于感染不给药组.[结论]三黄连合剂可减轻因海豚链球菌感染而造成的免疫抑制,保护机体免疫系统,提升免疫力,对罗非鱼感染海豚链球菌有良好的预防效果.
