• Whistles as Potential Indicators of Stress in Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) (2009, background): “Signature whistles may consist of a single element (or loop), or repeated loops (disconnected, connected, or both) that may be accompanied by an introductory or terminal loop or both (Caldwell et al. 1990; Sayigh et al. 1990, 2007).”
• Whistle characteristics in free-ranging bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in the Mediterranean Sea: Influence of behaviour (2011, background): “Bottlenose dolphins produce individually specific whistles called signature whistles (Caldwell and Caldwell, 1967; Caldwell et al., 1990; Sayigh et al., 2010) that appear to play an important role in social interactions and in maintaining group cohesion (Janik and Slater, 1998).”
