Beyond counting calls: estimating detection probability for Antarctic blue whales reveals biological trends in seasonal calling Frontiers in Marine Science, 2024 (Ref: 17166)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We explore the utility of estimating the density of calls of baleen whales for better understanding acoustic trends over time. We consider as a case study stereotyped 'song' calls of Antarctic blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia)…

Understanding pygmy blue whale movement and distribution off north Western Australia Journal of the Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association (APPEA), 2021 (Ref: 16561)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) is a listed endangered species under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. A distinct population of blue whales, the eastern Indian Ocean pygmy blue (EIOPB) whale…

Pygmy blue whale movement, distribution and important areas in the Eastern Indian Ocean Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 (Ref: 16558)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Pygmy blue whales in the South-east Indian Ocean migrate from the southern coast of Australia to Indonesia, with a significant part of their migration route passing through areas subject to oil and gas production.

The environmental effects of naturally and chemically dispersed marine fuel spills on Antarctic nemerteans Antarctonemertes valida and polychaetes Ophryotrocha orensanzi Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Asia Pacific and Australasia Conference, Nelson, New Zealand, 25-28 August 2015, 2015 (Ref: 15777)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Human activities in Antarctica pose significant threats to marine ecosystems through accidental fuel spills, primarily as aresult of shipping incidents. This risk is likely to increase due to rises in shipping frequency in the Southern Ocean.

Reproduction, growth and early life history of the Antarctic gammarid amphipod Paramoera walkeri Polar Biology, 2015 (Ref: 15567)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The gammarid Paramoera walkeri is one of the most abundant amphipods in near-shore Antarctic waters. There has been increasing interest in P. walkeri as a test species for ecotoxicology studies and bio-monitoring for contaminants in Antarctica…

Sensitivity of the Antarctic amphipod Paramoera walkeri to diesel and fuel oil: Lethal and behavioural impacts Strategic Science in Antarctica Conference, Hobart, Australia, 24-26 June 2013, 2013 (Ref: 15568)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

One of the serious threats to the Antarctic marine ecosystem is the release of large volumes of petroleum fuel. Numerous fuel spill incidents have occurred and risks of a major spill are increasing due to continued expansion of human activity in the Antarctic region.

Toxicity of physically and chemically dispersed fuels to the Antarctic marine amphipod Paramoera walkeri Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Asia Pacific and Australasia Conference, Adelaide, Australia, 14-17 September 2014, 2014 (Ref: 15382)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Antarctica is often considered a pristine wilderness, however, as human occupation and activities in the region increase, it is becoming increasingly apparent that this is not the case.
