New #MULTIWHALE publication on killer whales diet! ⬇️
#https://lnkd.in/e3XqhdTr

Exciting to broaden from dietary marker bulk stable isotopes & field observations to amino acid specific nitrogen stable isotopes!

More than expected had mixed diet ➡️higher tropic position
➡️greater risk from pollutants

Big congratulations to Dr. @clareandvik.bsky.social on a well deserved PhD thesis & defense to crown her hard work & achievements!

Great opposition by Profs Krishna Das and Bjørn Munro Jenssen and organization by Johan Øvrevik.

Our project MULTIWHALE is ending so watch out for publications!

Congrats to @clareandvik.bsky.social on her first Whale Scientists infographic! Full story: whalescientists.com/a-new-method...
Samples from Norwegian Orca Survey, project MULTIWHALE 🐳

Some great days at #ECS2026 in Dundee presenting our orca research 🫍 #multiwhale @biovitenskap.bsky.social #norwegianorcasurvey

But PHEW… presenting is hard at 7 months pregnant with squashed lungs & organs 😮‍💨😅 appreciate all the great feedback and interested people who found me after 🥹🫶

Key findings summarized in a popular science article on @whalescientists.bsky.social:

This study is part of the MULTIWHALE project by RCN, collaboration with @uio.no @borga.bsky.social @biovitenskap.bsky.social NMBU,
NIVA, HI, Norwegian Orca Survey

The V International Symposium on Orcas was the largest EVER gathering of orca researchers! 🌍🐳
I met so many talented & inspiring scientists, and presented research from our Forskingsrådet project MULTIWHALE @biovitenskap.bsky.social @uio.no
Thank you NAMMCO for funding my travel 🙏

The MULTIWHALE team are looking forward to sharing our results soon! 📈📊👩‍🔬👩‍💻

Our project is funded by the Norwegian Research Council and we are a collaboration between @uio.no @biovitenskap.bsky.social , #norwegianorcasurvey plus many more! 🤗🙌

BIOPSY SAMPLING - WHAT & WHY? 🤔🐳

A thread 🧵

Ever wondered how whale researchers get samples? For our NRC project #MULTIWHALE, we collect skin & blubber from wild killer whales in Arctic Norway 🐳 This is how! 👇 (1/7)

Still feeling high after an incredible week of science at #smmPerth2024 🤩 I presented results from MULTIWHALE & how stress hormones in Norwegian orcas are affected by whale watching boats. Stay tuned for the publication 🙌 #norwegianorcasurvey @biovitenskap.bsky.social @unioslo.bsky.social #forskning
