- Observation and analysis of sonar signal generation in the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus): Evidence for two sonar sources (2011, unknown): “This is a necessary precursor, because the Eustachian tube opens into the pressurized volume in the bony nasal passage at the angle of the Eustachian notch of the pterygoid bone (Mead and Fordyce, 2009).”
- Reconstructing Body Size in Extinct Crown Cetacea (Neoceti) Using Allometry, Phylogenetic Methods and Tests from the Fossil Record (2011, methodology): “These measurements are either traditional from the mammalogical literature, or standard landmarks (see, e.g., Perrin 1975; Mead and Fordyce 2009).”
- The More the Merrier? A Large Cladistic Analysis of Mysticetes, and Comments on the Transition from Teeth to Baleen (2011, methodology): “…to minimize issues with character subjectivity, and hence non-repeatability, an effort was made to use standardized morphological terminology (based on Mead and Fordyce 2009), and to exclude characters based on a purely subjective assessment of a morphological feature (e.g., “high” vs. “low”).”
- A new marine vertebrate assemblage from the Late Neogene Purisima Formation in Central California, part II: Pinnipeds and Cetaceans (2013, background): “Anatomical terminology for pinnipeds follows that of Deméré & Berta (2005, and sources therein), while anatomical terminology for cetacean crania follows that of Mead & Fordyce (2009), with some of the suggested modifications of Ekdale et al. (2011).”
