- Local and migratory movements of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) satellite-tracked in the North Atlantic Ocean (2014, unknown): “Studies have shown that migratory timing and speed are heavily influenced by sex, age, reproductive status, and feeding ground preference (Chittleborough 1965; Dawbin 1966; Brown and Corkeron 1995; Brown et al. 1995; Stevick et al. 2003; Weinrich et al. 2006; Noad and Cato 2007); however, these stud”
- North Atlantic humpback whale abundance and rate of increase four decades after protection from whaling (2003, background): “Stevick et al. (1999, 2003) showed that the date of sighting in the West Indies is related, in part, to highlatitude origin; humpback whales from the eastern North Atlantic were seen in the West Indies significantly later than those from the west.”
- Migratory Timing of Humpback Whales ( Megaptera novaeangliae ) in the Central North Pacific Varies with Age, Sex and Reproductive Status (2003, background): “Our e ndings are of particular interest in view of the recent report by Stevick et al. (2003) that males arrive earlier than females on the West Indies winter grounds.”
- Segregation of Beaufort Sea beluga whales during the open-water season (2006, unknown): “Among cetaceans, sexual segregation occurs in both mysticetes (e.g., Atlantic humpback whale, Megaptera novaeangliae (Borowski, 1781); Stevick et al. 2003 ) and odontocetes (e.g., bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops truncatus (Montagu, 1821); Conner et al. 1999).”
