The Negative Impacts of Whale-Watching (2012, unknown): “The effect of noise from whale-watching traffic and its population-level impacts are issues that require more quantification and attention [85, 86].”
A systematic review on the behavioural responses of wild marine mammals to noise: the disparity between science and policy (2016, background): “…recognize and/or discriminate sounds used for foraging, conspecific communications, navigation, and predator/hazard avoidance (Richardson et al.1995; Nowacek et al. 2007; Southall et al. 2007; Weilgart 2007; Wright and Soto 2007; Rolland et al. 2012; Ketten 2014; Erbe et al. 2015; NOAA 2015).”
Studying the behaviour and sensory ecology of marine mammals using acoustic recording tags: a review (2009, background): “…drawn from multi-sensor tag data, relatively few behavioural or physiological variables are directly measured by a tag and these may reveal little about the physical state and previous history of the tagged animal or about stress-related or long-term responses to an exposure (Wright et al. 2007).”
A review of impacts of marine dredging activities on marine mammals (2015, background): “Knowledge on the effects of anthropogenic noise on marine mammals has improved due to extensive research over the past two decades, although many information gaps still exist (see, for example, Croll et al., 2001; Gerstein et al., 2006; Southall et al., 2007; Weilgart, 2007; Wright et al., 2007; OSP”
