Effect of Habitat Change: Foraging habitat use and prey resources of bottlenose dolphin in Cockburn Sound
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Field studies of dolphin foraging behaviour were carried out between 2000 and 2002 in Cockburn Sound with two objectives: 1) to quantify the foraging habitat use of dolphins within Cockburn Sound and; 2) to identify the spatial and temporal patterns of large…

The Measurement of Seagrass Photosynthesis Using PAM Fluorometry - Seasonal variation in the photosynthetic rates
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The study aims to determine the seasonal photosynthetic variation in Posidonia sinuosa, Posidonia australis and Halophila ovalis. Sampling was conducted in in-situ seagrasses over eight months, from spring 2004 to autumn 2004 at Woodman Point, Western…

The Measurement of Seagrass Photosynthesis Using PAM Fluorometry - Summary
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Photosynthetic activity of three seagrass species, Posidonia sinuosa, Posidonia australis and Halophila ovalis, growing in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia, was assessed using an underwater pulse amplitude modulated fluorometer (Diving-PAM). The study aimed…

Effects of provisioning bottlenose dolphins in Cockburn Sound: injuries, entanglements, and changes to ranging and social behaviours
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Unpublished data and analyses from Rebecca Donaldson (1993-1997) and original data collected for the thesis (2000-2003) from Cockburn Sound were used to: 1) evaluate the link between high-risk behaviour by dolphins during provisioning interactions and rates of…

Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops sp.) in the Swan Estuary
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The GPS locations of Bottlenose dolphins in the Swan River Estuary were recorded from October 2001 to June 2003 with the following fields: behaviour, date/time, location, nearest landmark, id's present, depth, feeding activity and the presence of tail slapping…

Conservation Biology of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops sp.) in Perth Metropolitan Waters - Summary
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The aim of this study was to assess the effects of human-induced habitat change and illegal feeding on the residential sub-population of ~75 bottlenose dolphins in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia by using a variety of sampling approaches from 2000-2003.

Factors influencing the acquisition of an attraction response to human provisioning by bottlenose dolphins in Cockburn Sound
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The contribution of four factors to the acquisition of attraction responses to human provisioning by dolphins in Cockburn Sound: 1) individual patterns in the use of high boat density areas; 2) age-class; 3) sex; and 4) close associations with 'experienced'…
