commercial ships crossing oceans. A concomitant increase in underwater noise has been …

Whale watching is an international industry worth more than US $2 billion globally and is
currently the greatest economic activity reliant upon cetaceans. However, there is concern …

The potential impacts of underwater noise on marine mammals are widely recognised, but
uncertainty over variability in baseline noise levels often constrains efforts to manage these …

Shipping is the most pervasive source of marine noise pollution globally, yet its impact on
sensitive fauna remains unclear. We tracked 10 harbour porpoises for 5–10 days to …

Whale-watching activities can induce behavioral changes that may negatively affect
cetacean populations. However, these changes may vary depending on species …

This study examined sex‐specific differences in home range size of adult Indo‐Pacific
bottlenose dolphins off Bunbury, Western Australia. We applied a new kernel density …

The potential disturbance of dolphins from tourism boats has been widely discussed in the
literature, in terms of both physical vessel presence and associated underwater noise …

In recent years there has been significant interest in modelling cumulative effects and the
population consequences of individual changes in cetacean behaviour and physiology due …

The need for managing non‐lethal effects on wildlife is becoming increasingly important as
global human–wildlife interactions are now more frequent and more diverse. We developed …

This book critically examines the many ways in which tourism and animals intersect, whether
