Predictive Models of Cetacean Densities in the California Current Ecosystem, 2016

Description

We developed predictive habitat-based models of cetacean density based on seven shipboard cetacean surveys conducted during summer and fall between 1991 and 2009 in the California Current Ecosystem. Models were built for 14 taxonomically diverse species/species groups including striped dolphin, short-beaked common dolphin, long-beaked common dolphin, Pacific white-sided dolphin, northern right whale dolphin, Risso's dolphin, common bottlenose dolphin, Dall's porpoise, sperm whale, fin whale, humpback whale, blue whale, Baird's beaked whale and a small beaked whale guild (Mesoplondon spp. and Cuvier's beaked whale).
