| contents | <p>This report, “Orca Hazards Research Compilation: Anthropogenic and Environmental Stressors Impacting Marine Mammal Populations in Florida and the Gulf of Mexico,” presents an evidence-based analysis of key threats affecting orcas and other marine mammals across southeastern U.S. waters. Compiling peer-reviewed literature, ecological data, and conservation reports, the article identifies the cumulative impacts of vessel strikes, underwater noise pollution, harmful algal blooms, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and habitat degradation.</p> <p> </p> <p>This compilation is intended to support marine conservation efforts by synthesizing actionable knowledge for researchers, policymakers, and ecological risk analysts. The research emphasizes the urgency of mitigating overlapping environmental and human-induced stressors that threaten the survival of highly sensitive marine mammal species.</p> |
