Title A name given to the resource Largest baleen whale mass mortality during strong El Niño event is likely related to harmful toxic algal bloom Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Verena Häussermann, Carolina S. Gutstein, Michael Beddington, David Cassis, Carlos Olavarria, Andrew C. Dale, Ana M. Valenzuela-Toro, Maria Jose Perez-Alvarez, Hector H. Sepúlveda, Kaitlin M. McConnell, Fanny E. Horwitz, Günter Försterra Description An account of the resource While large mass mortality events (MMEs) are well known for toothed whales, they have been rare in baleen whales due to their less gregarious behavior. Although in most cases the cause of mortality has not been conclusively identified, some baleen whale mortality events have been linked to bio-oceanographic conditions, such as harmful algal blooms (HABs). In Southern Chile, HABs can be triggered by the ocean–atmosphere phenomenon El Niño. The frequency of the strongest El Niño events is increasing due to climate change. In March 2015, by far the largest reported mass mortality of baleen whales took place in a gulf in Southern Chile. Here, we show that the synchronous death of at least 343, primarily sei whales can be attributed to HABs during a building El Niño. Although considered an oceanic species, the sei whales died while feeding near to shore in previously unknown large aggregations. This provides evidence of new feeding grounds for the species. The combination of older and newer remains of whales in the same area indicate that MMEs have occurred more than once in recent years. Large HABs and reports of marine mammal MMEs along the Northeast Pacific coast may indicate similar processes in both hemispheres. Increasing MMEs through HABs may become a serious concern in the conservation of endangered whale species.
