Using individual-based bioenergetic models to predict the aggregate effects of disturbance on populations: A case study with beaked whales and Navy sonar
Fig 7
The interaction between species, the pattern of MFAS use and the response to MFAS.
By default, the time series of MFAS from AUTEC was applied to the population of Md (blue symbols top panel) and the MFAS signal from SOAR was applied to Zc (red symbols bottom panel). This plot shows the effect of the hypothetical scenario in which Md would be exposed to the MFAS pattern at SOAR (red symbols; top panel) and Zc to MFAS at AUTEC (blue symbols; bottom panel). For both species, MFAS as used at SOAR had a stronger effect on population abundance compared to MFAS as used at AUTEC. All other parameters at default values (Table S3 in S1 File).
