Shark predation and tooth wear in a population of northeastern Pacific killer whales (2011, methodology): “Individual photo-identification matches show extensive movements of whales throughout outer coast waters from southern California to the eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska (Black et al. 1997, Ford et al. 2000, Dahlheim et al. 2008).”
Brominated flame retardants in the Arctic environment--trends and new candidates. (2010, background): “Although offshores have been encountered as far south as Los Angeles mostly in the winter months (Black et al., 1997; Ford et al., 2000), only recently have photo-identification re-sightings of offshore individuals been recorded between Alaska, Washington State and California, thus suggesting a sing”
Estimating abundance of killer whales in the nearshore waters of the Gulf of Alaska and Aleutian Islands using line-transect sampling (2007, background): “…PaciWc Ocean, killer whale abundance and population biology has been well documented at longterm study sites in Prince William Sound, southeastern Alaska, British Columbia, and Puget Sound (Bigg et al. 1990; Olesiuk et al. 1990; Matkin et al. 1994; Dahlheim et al. 1997; Ford et al. 2000).”
The vocal behaviour of mammal-eating killer whales: communicating with costly calls (2005, unknown): “When killer whales were encountered, the identity and size of the group were confirmed by taking identification photographs of all individuals for comparison with existing catalogues (Ford & Ellis 1999; Matkin et al. 1999; Ford et al. 2000).”
Behavioural responses of killer whales (Orcinus orca) to whale‐watching boats: opportunistic observations and experimental approaches (2006, methodology): “Behaviours recorded by the computer operator included: breath, breach, ̄uke slap, pectoral ®n slap, dorsal ®n slap, unidenti®ed splash, porpoising, and spyhop (Ford et al., 1994).”
Satellite tracking reveals distinct movement patterns for Type B and Type C killer whales in the southern Ross Sea, Antarctica (2008, background): “Transients travel less predictable routes and cover larger ranges than the sympatric residents (Morton 1990; Baird 2000; Ford et al. 2000).”
KILLER WHALES AND MARINE MAMMAL TRENDS IN THE NORTH PACIFIC—A RE-EXAMINATION OF EVIDENCE FOR SEQUENTIAL MEGAFAUNA COLLAPSE AND THE PREY-SWITCHING HYPOTHESIS (2007, background): “Three types of killer whales have been identified in the northeast Pacific, labeled as “resident,” “transient,” and “offshore” ecotypes (Bigg et al. 1990, Ford et al. 2000) based on aspects of morphology, ecology, genetics, and behavior (Ford and Fisher 1982; Baird and Stacey 1988; Baird et al.…”
The social dynamics of southern resident killer whales and conservation implications for this endangered population (2009, methodology): “Population members occur commonly throughout the coastal waters of southern British Columbia and Washington State, with peak frequency in inshore waters during the summer months (Ford et al. 2000).”
