Underestimating the damage: interpreting cetacean carcass recoveries in the context of the Deepwater Horizon/BP incident (2011, background): “…taken from (Waring et al. 2009b), unless otherwise noted. b Population-level estimates are preferable but generally unavailable, so data taken from (Taylor et al. 2007a). c Calculated as the abundance multiplied by mortality rate ( = 1–survival rate). d Population abundance and stranding data…”
Risso's dolphin Grampus griseus in the Mediterranean Sea (2011, methodology): “A demographic model, using information from around the world ummarised by Kruse et al. (1999) and Perrin and Reilly (1984), ielded estimates of age at first reproduction of 11 years, interirth interval of 2.4 years and oldest age of reproducing females of 8 years (Taylor et al., 2007).”
Abundance of humpback whales in Oceania using photo-identification and microsatellite genotyping (2012, background): “High survival rates may reflect the short length of the study relative to the long generation time of humpback whales (21.5 yr; Taylor et al. 2007), which is more than 3 times longer than the period of this survey.”
An approach for regional threat assessment under IUCN Red List criteria that is robust to uncertainty: The Fiordland bottlenose dolphins are critically endangered (2009, background): “total population size) and for mature individuals, assuming 60% of individuals were mature (Taylor et al., 2007).”
Can local ecological knowledge be used to assess status and extinction drivers in a threatened freshwater cetacean (2013, unknown): “The real CV for the first abundance estimate is unknown; our chosen value is larger than typical for dolphins and porpoises (Taylor et al., 2007b) without assuming an unduly high value. The CV for the second abundance estimate is from Zhao et al. (2008). Change in the index between decades was consi”
Strong maternal fidelity and natal philopatry shape genetic structure in North Pacific humpback whales (2013, unknown): “Given the estimated generation time of 21.5 yr for humpback whales (Taylor et al. 2007), the equivalent number of annual vagrants would be too small to detect by differences in haplotype frequencies.”
