Blue Whale - High density feeding areas

Description

11 tagged Blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) were tracked during the daytime movements as well as the feeding behaviour in the St. Lawrence River estuary. Kernel density was applied to derminate the high density feeding areas of all individuals combined (30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 95 %). Doniol-Valcroze T, Lesage V, Giard J, Michaud R, 2012.
