Brief description

The relative vessel strike risk for various species (humpback whale, green turtle, dugong, seagrass locations and generic species) and selected vessel categories over the 3 year period 2013-2015. Risk is calculated from available animal distribution information ([1][2][3][4][5][6]) and vessel Automatic Information System (AIS) data (supplied by AMSA [7]).

From this, two risk metrics are derived:

1) relative risk of a collision, and

2) for large whales (humpback, sperm, southern right whale): vessel speed vs mortality curves are used to obtain relative risk of a fatal collision. A more detailed description of the underlying data and the risk metrics used is given in [8].
