Dusky dolphin foraging habitat: overlap with aquaculture in New Zealand (2004, background): “Such hunting activities are hampered by physical obstacles in their preferred foraging habitat (W .ursig and Gailey, 2002).”
Ecology and conservation of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus in the Mediterranean Sea (2009, background): “Increased nutrient levels, complex substrate and provision of fish-feed in the proximity of the cages trigger trophic enrichment and can attract potential bottlenose dolphin prey (Karakassis et al., 2000; Würsig & Gailey, 2002; Kemper et al., 2003; Dempster et al., 2004).”
The effects of aquaculture on bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops sp.) ranging in Shark Bay, Western Australia (2005, background): “Displacement of cetaceans by aquaculture may also occur because they frequently share the same coastal habitat (Crespo and Hall, 2002; Würsig and Gailey, 2002; Markowitz et al., 2004).”
Opportunities, challenges and future directions of open-water seaweed aquaculture in the United States (2019, background): “…apply for a seaweed aquaculture permit, including recreational boat and fishing activities, marine mammal populations, and water quality (Buck 2007; Duff et al. 2003; Hopkins et al. 1997; Würsig & Gailey 2002), resulting in limited areas available for seaweed farming in nearshore environments.”
