• Responses of cetaceans to anthropogenic noise (2007, methodology): “For example, concerns have been raised over the potential exclusionary effect of AHDs on harbour porpoises (Johnston & Woodley, 1998). This is of particular concern where intensive salmon farming activities overlap spatially and temporally with areas that are thought to be important habitat for mari”
• Responses of harbour porpoises to pile driving at the Horns Rev II offshore wind farm in the Danish North Sea (2011, background): “…al.: Harbour porpoise response to pile driving observed avoidance reactions by porpoises to the Airmar seal scarer, up to a distance of 2.5 to 3.5 km and Johnston (2002) reported a mean closest approach distance of 991 m during seal scarer activity compared to 364 m during seal scarer inactivity.”
• Using habitat models to identify suitable sites for marine protected areas for harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) (2010, background): “These devices have been shown to exclude porpoises from areas of potentially important habitat (Johnston, 2002; Olesiuk et al., 2002), and are used extensively on salmon farms throughout the west coast of Scotland (Gordon and Northridge, 2002; Quick et al.”
• Attraction and repulsion of mobile wild organisms to finfish and shellfish aquaculture: a review (2018, background): “…cetaceans, including porpoises and killer whales, displacing these marine mammals large distances from farms protected in this manner (Mate & Harvey 1987, Gordon & Northridge 2002, Johnston 2002, Johnston & Woodley 1998, Morton 2000, Morton & Symonds 2002, Strong et al. 1995, Taylor et al. 1995).”
