  • Lipid and gross energy content of North Atlantic right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy 

    Michaud, Josee, and Christopher T. Taggart. 2007. "Lipid and gross energy content of North Atlantic right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy." Endangered Species Research 3(1): 77-94.
    We address spatial and temporal distribution of abundance, lipid and caloric content and water column energy density of the copepod Calanus finmarchicus, a major food source for the north Atlantic right whale (NARW) Eubalaena ...

  • Mixed-stock analysis of Atlantic cod near the Gulf of St. Lawrence based on microsatellite DNA 

    Ruzzante, DE, CT Taggart, S. Lang, and D. Cook. 2000. "Mixed-stock analysis of Atlantic cod near the Gulf of St. Lawrence based on microsatellite DNA." Ecological Applications 10(4): 1090-1109.
    The collapse of various stock complexes of cod (Gadus morhua) in the northwest Atlantic has prompted a clarification of relationships among stock components. Here we examine the genetic composition of >2300 cod collected ...

  • Probability and mitigation of vessel encounters with North Atlantic right whales 

    Vanderlaan, Angelia SM, James J. Corbett, Shannon L. Green, John A. Callahan, et al. 2009. "Probability and mitigation of vessel encounters with North Atlantic right whales." Endangered Species Research 6(3): 273-285.
    Successful mitigation of vessel-whale encounters requires quantitative estimates of vessel strikes, how strike rates change over time, where strikes are most likely to occur, and options for minimizing strikes. In addressing ...

  • Reducing the risk of lethal encounters: vessels and right whales in the Bay of Fundy and on the Scotian Shelf 

    Vanderlaan, Angelia S. M., Christopher T. Taggart, Anna R. Serdynska, Robert D. Kenney, et al. 2008. "Reducing the risk of lethal encounters: vessels and right whales in the Bay of Fundy and on the Scotian Shelf." Endangered Species Research 4(3): 283-297.
    The North Atlantic right whale Eubalaena glacialis is endangered, in part, due to vessel-strike mortality. We use vessel traffic and right whale survey data (similar to 3 nautical miles [n miles], similar to 5.6 km resolution) ...

  • Spatial variation in right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy 

    Michaud, J., and C. T. Taggart. 2011. "Spatial variation in right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy." Endangered Species Research 15(3): 179-194.
