Marine mammals and sonar: Dose‐response studies, the risk‐disturbance hypothesis and the role of exposure context (2018, background): “…have received attention, including shipping (e.g. Aguilar Soto et al., 2006; Lusseau, Bain, Williams, & Smith, 2009), seismic prospecting (e.g. Miller et al., 2009; Richardson, Greene, Malme, & Thompson, 1995) and the installation of offshore renewable energy technologies (e.g. pile driving,…”
Studying the behaviour and sensory ecology of marine mammals using acoustic recording tags: a review (2009, background): “The use of a high-powered sound source deployed from a dedicated ship greatly increases the expense of the study and reduces flexibility in scheduling, both of which reduce the number of replicates (Miller et al. 2009).”
A systematic review on the behavioural responses of wild marine mammals to noise: the disparity between science and policy (2016, background): “However, these studies did show that, for example, animals engaged in foraging may be less overtly responsive than those travelling, presumably due to the benefits of pursuing their activity in comparison to the costs of interrupting this behaviour through displacement (e.g., Miller et al. 2009).”
US Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico marine mammal stock assessments - 2015 (2016, background): “Further study is needed as samples sizes are insufficient at this 259 time (Miller et al. 2009).”
