Assessing changing baleen whale distributions and reported incidents relative to vessel activity in the Northwest Atlantic.
Baleen whales are among the largest marine megafauna, and while mostly well-protected from direct exploitation, they are increasingly affected by vessel traffic, interactions with fisheries, and climate change. Adverse interactions, notably vessel strikes and fishing gear entanglement, often result...
