Ocean‐scale prediction of whale shark distribution (2012, background): “There are likely at least 512 Diversity and Distributions, 18, 504–518, ª 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd to be time-lags (and therefore spatial) between peaks of Chl a and zooplankton (Runge, 1998; Sleeman et al., 2010b).”
Protected species use of a coastal marine migratory corridor connecting marine protected areas (2014, background): “…by the movement patterns of blue whales, pygmy blue whales and whale sharks tracked in our study region after departing the coast of australia (Wilson et al. 2006; gales et al. 2009; Sleeman et al. 2010; Double et al. 2012a; Sequeira et al. 2013), and in the wider Pacific (e.g. Block et al. 2011).”
A biologist's guide to assessing ocean currents: a review (2012, methodology): “…regular intervals (Gaspar et al. 2006, Cotté et al. 2007, Seminoff et al. 2008, Bailleul et al. 2010, Campbell et al. 2010); and (2) particles are tracked in numerical ocean circulation models to mimic Lagrangian drifter buoys (Bonhommeau et al. 2009, Sleeman et al. 2010, Kobayashi & Cheng 2011).”
