- Acoustic quality of critical habitats for three threatened whale populations (2014, background): “After all, global shipping activities have risen to dominate ocean soundscapes during roughly the lifetime of a fin whale (Lockyer, 2007).”
- Prey density and distribution drive the three‐dimensional foraging strategies of the largest filter feeder (2015, background): “High energetic efficiency also provides a means for rapidly developing large lipid reserves required to fuel ocean-scale migrations to breeding grounds where prey resources may be less reliable (Brodie 1975; Lockyer 2007; Bailey et al. 2009).”
- Noninvasive unmanned aerial vehicle provides estimates of the energetic cost of reproduction in humpback whales (2016, background): “A large body energy storage is a necessity for baleen whales as energy stores constitute the primary source of energy during the breeding season, when whales migrate to less productive equatorial waters (Lockyer 2007).”
- Linking Behavior to Vital Rates to Measure the Effects of Non‐Lethal Disturbance on Wildlife (2015, background): “Baleen whales are capital breeders, which means that the foraging success of a female on the feeding ground will determine the amount of energy she can accumulate, in the form of body reserves, and later transfer to her offspring on the breeding grounds (Figure 1; Lockyer 2007).”
- Seasonal habitat-based density models for a marine top predator, the harbor porpoise, in a dynamic environment (2016, background): “In addition, this division also captures sensitive periods in the annual reproduction cycle of harbor porpoises in the North Sea, where the birth and mating period occurs in summer (Lockyer 2007).”
- Population comparison of right whale body condition reveals poor state of the North Atlantic right whale (2020, background): “During the breeding season, lactating females have finite energy reserves to support their own metabolic needs and the growth of their calf (Lockyer 2007, Christiansen et al. 2018).”
- Evidence for density-dependent changes in body condition and pregnancy rate of North Atlantic fin whales over four decades of varying environmental conditions (2013, background): “This is a defensible position, given the importance of blubber as a mechanism for energy storage in cetaceans (Lockyer, 2007), but blubber thickness is by no means the only or best metric of body condition.”
- Maternal body size and condition determine calf growth rates in southern right whales (2018, background): “Our estimate, however, also includes changes in volume related to the female’s own metabolism, maintenance and growth (Lockyer 2007, Christiansen et al. 2016a).”
