Tracing the drivers of range-wide bowhead whale genomic structure and diversity

Michael V. Westbury, Nicholas A. Freymueller, Andrea A. Cabrera…·Eline D. Lorenzen

This study identifies three genetically distinct bowhead whale populations and links past habitat connectivity to current genetic structure, showing high genetic diversity despite historical whaling.

Four centuries of commercial whaling eroded 11,000 years of population stability in bowhead whales

Michael V. Westbury, Stuart C. Brown, Andrea A. Cabrera…·Eline D. Lorenzen

This study uses fossil data and modeling to show that commercial whaling caused genetic diversity loss in bowhead whales, threatening their resilience to future climate change.
