SRKW fish-echo masking: detection margin vs vessel distance

Lines show detection margin (dB) as vessel-to-whale distance is swept continuously from 20-2000 m for each vessel travel status. Positive margin = fish detected; negative = fish masked. With more than one vessel, individual vessels are simulated as scattered around the mean distance (SD = spread); the shaded band is the 10th-90th percentile of the resulting margin.
