Summary: | Fig. 6.—Simulated prey encounter rates for humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae; orange) and fin (Balaenoptera physalus; blue) whales given various depth distributions of the prey field (black dotted line). Top row explores effect of mean prey depth (SD = 20 m); bottom row explores effect of increasing vertical dispersion (about mean 100 m).
