This project investigates the evolution of vocal dialects in killer whales, focusing on how these unique call patterns are learned and change over time. By applying linguistic and computational methods, the research aims to understand the principles of cultural evolution and enhance conservation efforts for killer whal…
Dialects occur in a range of species, from human language to bird song.
This project will focus on dialect evolution in killer whales.
Each pod of killer whales shares a unique repertoire of discrete calls – a vocal dialect, which passes from mother to offspring through social learning.
It is commonly accepted that killer whale dialects change gradually with time by accumulation of stochastic copying errors, but some observations suggest that call evolution is much more complex phenomenon.
