• Satellite tracking reveals distinct movement patterns for Type B and Type C killer whales in the southern Ross Sea, Antarctica (2008, background): “Therefore, mammal-eating transients are much quieter, making fewer echolocation clicks (Barrett-Lennard et al. 1996) and pulsed calls (Deecke et al. 2005) than Wsh-eating residents.”
• Cultural traditions and the evolution of reproductive isolation: ecological speciation in killer whales? (2012, background): “In the eastern North Pacific, the genetic distance based on nuclear DNA is greatest between resident and transient ecotypes, and FST values (fixation index; Weir & Cockerham, 1984) clearly suggest some degree of reproductive isolation between the two (e.g. Hoelzel et al., 1998, 2007; Morin et al., 2”
• Studying the behaviour and sensory ecology of marine mammals using acoustic recording tags: a review (2009, background): “The quality of on-animal sound recordings varies with the location of the tag on the animal, while the presence of sonic foraging cues in some species may depend on geographic location and the prey targeted (Deecke et al. 2005).”
• Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) modify grouping and vocal behaviour in response to location-specific risk (2007, unknown): “The silence of chimpanzees during border patrols has become a widely cited example of an audience effect (Grinnell & McComb, 2001; Deecke et al., 2005; Aureli et al., 2006).”
• Retrospective characterization of ontogenetic shifts in killer whale diets via δ 13 C and δ 15 N analysis of teeth (2009, background): “Social structure, vocalization patterns, and more importantly, foraging behavior are also quite different (Baird & Stacey 1988, Heimlich-Boran 1988, Bigg et al. 1990, Ford et al. 1998, Baird & Whitehead 2000, Saulitis et al. 2000, Deecke et al. 2005).”
• Shark predation and tooth wear in a population of northeastern Pacific killer whales (2011, background): “…and genetically distinct lineages (Stevens et al. 1989, Hoelzel & Dover 1991, Barrett-Lennard 2000) that differ markedly in social dynamics (Ford & Ellis 1999, Baird & Whitehead 2000), vocal behaviour (Ford & Fisher 1982, Barrett-Lennard et al. 1996, Deecke et al. 2005) and foraging strategy.”
• Vessel noise effects on delphinid communication (2009, background): “…al. 2006), where acoustic cues play an important role in mediating social structure (Janik & Slater 1998, Watwood et al. 2005), predator avoidance (Deecke et al. 2005), mate choice (Gerhardt & Klump 1988), mother– calf interactions (Renouf 1984, Smolker et al. 1993), cooperative foraging (Janik…”
• Marine mammal acoustic detections in the northeastern Chukchi Sea, September 2007–July 2011 (2013, background): “Killer whale detections consisted mainly of pulsed calls (Deecke et al., 2005).”
