Abstract

Pripadnici reda kitova (lat. Cetacea) su socijalna bića koja često žive u grupama te su usavršili
komunikaciju izrazito kompleksnim sustavima o kojima je i dalje malo toga poznato. Dosad
je najbolje proučavana akustična komunikacija u koju spadaju zvukovi različitih frekvencija
poput vokalizacije, zvižduka ili klikova koji su drugačiji za svaku vrstu ili određenu populaciju
te vremenom pokazuju usklađene promjene. Nešto manje proučavani, a jednako bitni,
su pokreti i radnje koji ne spadaju u akustičnu komunikaciju, ali igraju ulogu u koordinaciji
grupe, prepoznavanju individualnih jedinki i izražavanju agresije, uzbuđenja ili radoznalosti.
Mnogo toga ostaje nepoznato, a najnovija istraživanja pokušavaju razviti metode detektiranja
i shvaćanja sustava komunikacije bez ugrožavanja postojećih populacija.

Abstract (english)

Members of the cetacean order are social beings that often live in groups and have perfected
communicating with complex sequences about which much is still unknown. Acoustic communication,
which includes sounds of different frequencies such as vocalizations, whistles or
clicks, which are different for each species or a certain population and show coordinated
changes over time, has been the best studied so far. Somewhat less studied, but equally important,
is non-acoustic communication which plays a role in group coordination, recognition of
individuals and expression of aggression, excitement or curiosity. Much remains unknown,
and the latest research attempts to develop methods of detecting and understanding communication
systems without endangering existing populations.
