• Hydrodynamics of a ship/whale collision (2010, unknown): “Our findings regarding the relationship between vessel speed and accelerations experienced by the whale model are consistent with other studies that concluded vessel speed is an important factor in the fate of a whale in a vessel/whale collision (Pace and Silber, 2005; Vanderlaan and Taggart, 2007).”
• A review of impacts of marine dredging activities on marine mammals (2015, background): “Studies have shown that the risk of a collision occurring and the likelihood that it will result in severe or lethal injury increases when vessels exceed 10– 14 kn (Laist et al., 2001; Vanderlaan and Taggart, 2007; Gende et al., 2011; Neilson et al., 2012; Lammers et al., 2013).”
