• Implications for marine mammals of large-scale changes in the marine acoustic environment (2008, background): “Zimmer and Tyack (2007) point out that 1 explanation for mass strandings of beaked whales that coincide with sonar exercises is that the sonars have fundamental frequencies well outside of the frequency band of the whales’ own signals, but that are quite similar to the calls of killer whales.”
• Diel variation in beaked whale diving behavior (2008, background): “Mid-frequency sonar associated with naval exercises may continue for an extended period and propagate for a greater distance than the higher frequency (and lower intensity) calls of killer whales, thus potentially eliciting a response for an extended period (Zimmer and Tyack 2007).”
