Bottlenose dolphin abundance in the NW Mediterranean: addressing heterogeneity in distribution (2004, background): “Several surveys have found that during periods of intense boat traffic dolphins show altered sound-emission and swimming behaviour (Evans et al. 1992, Scarpaci et al. 2000, Nowacek et al. 2001), or are forced to abandon primary foraging habitats (Allen & Read 2000).”
Tourism affects the behavioural budget of the common dolphin Delphinus sp. in the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand (2008, background): “…behaviours, horizontal avoidance, increase in speed and decrease in resting behaviour (Gordon et al. 1992, Corkeron 1995, Barr & Slooten 1999, Bejder et al. 1999, Scarpaci et al. 2000, Williams et al. 2002, Lusseau 2003b, Constantine et al. 2004, Bejder et al. 2006b, Neumann & Orams 2006,…”
Behavioural changes in female Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in response to boat-based tourism (2007, background): “Resident inshore populations may risk long-term effects from tourist activities, as the same individuals may be approached and disturbed day after day (Scarpaci et al. 2000).”
Changes in bottlenose dolphin whistle parameters related to vessel presence, surface behaviour and group composition (2016, background): “, 2000), few have controlled for other key covariates that may influence whistle parameters such as behavioural context (Lemon, Lynch, Cato, & Harcourt, 2006; May-Collado & Qui~ nones-Lebr on, 2014; Scarpaci et al., 2000).”
