Vessel noise effects on delphinid communication (2009, background): “…respects, by preventing collisions and avoiding areas with high levels of noise, they may also have detrimental effects on the animals by displacing animals from preferred feeding or breeding habitats and by altering their behavioural time budget (Lusseau 2003, Bejder 2005, Lusseau et al. 2009).”
A systematic review on the behavioural responses of wild marine mammals to noise: the disparity between science and policy (2016, background): “In brief, the absence of a behavioural response to noise does not necessarily mean that there is an absence of a biological impact; and a strong behavioural response does not always indicate population-level effects as, for instance, non-responsive individuals might be habituated or may be reacting ”

Species and stock identification of prey consumed by endangered southern resident killer whales in their summer range (2010, unknown): “…impact this population, including chemical contamination, threats from potential oil spills, a small population size (Krahn et al. 2002) and auditory (Holt et al. 2009) or behavioral disturbance from boat traffic in their summer range (Lusseau et al. 2009, Noren et al. 2009, Williams et al. 2009).”
Close approaches by vessels elicit surface active behaviors by southern resident killer whales (2009, background): “…et al. 2003, Lusseau 2003a, 2004, Constantine et al. 2004, King & Heinen 2004, Lemon et al. 2006, Williams et al. 2006, Hodgson & Marsh 2007, Lusseau et al. 2009), changed swimming speed or direction (Au & Perryman 1982, Kruse 1991, Au & Green 2000, Nowacek et al. 2001, Williams et al.…”
Meta-analyses of whale-watching impact studies: Comparisons of cetacean responses to disturbance (2016, background): “…to whale-watching vessels include changes in respiration patterns (Hastie et al. 2003, Tosi & Ferreira 2008), activity budgets modifications (Lusseau et al. 2009, Christiansen et al. 2010, Visser et al. 2011), vertical and horizontal avoidance (Lemon et al. 2006, Williams et al. 2002),…”
