Abstract | Observations of altered behavior of marine mammals in the area of mid-range sonar use by the naval vessel USS SHOUP in the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca and Haro Strait on 5 May 2003, prompted the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to conduct an in-depth investigation on the causes of harbor porpoise strandings. Fifteen stranded harbor porpoises were reported during the period of 2 May 2003 to 2 June 2003, an abnormally high number when compared to the average stranding rate of 6 per year recorded over the previous decade. Eleven of the stranded harbor porpoises were collected for this investigation. |
