Evaluation of potential management strategies for the reduction of boat-related mortality of manatees.
Site-Specific Reduction of Manatee Boat/Barge Mortality Research Report (Florida Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit, Univ. of Florida, Gainesville) No. 3: ii + 43. 2 tabs. Oct. 1983.
–Discusses pros and cons of methods of physical protection of manatees (propeller guards, artificial barriers, acoustic repellents, deeper dredging of channels) and passive detection and avoidance (boat speed zones, routing of boat traffic, marina siting policies, sonar imagery, public education). Describes some inconclusive experiments to test manatee response to high-intensity sounds (3-4) and the effectiveness of manatee detection by sonar (9-12). Recommends a combination of strategies, including public education, wise marina-siting policies, and boat speed zones, plus further research on propeller guards. Includes an appendix (20-43) illustrating numerous designs for propeller guards and related devices.
