This book was released on 2004 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1996 the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) sponsored the first comprehensive survey of marine mammals fully encompassing the exclusive economic zone and adjacent waters out to 300 nautical miles from shore along the West Coast of the contiguous United States ... In continuation of the work begun with that survey, and in an effort to better understand the ecosystems involved, the SWFSC sponsored another marine mammal survey of this area in 2001, titled the Oregon, California, and Washington Line Transect Expedition (ORCAWALE). The information collected from these endeavors is summarized in this report. SURVEY OBJECTIVES: The primary goal of this expedition was to estimate the abundance and distribution of cetaceans by visual and acoustic methods. Concurrent with the abundance estimation, the expedition collected oceanographic data, as well as other forms of biological data, to contribute to a more thorough understanding of the environment in which these species are found."--Page 1.

Book Synopsis Mixed-Species Groups of Animals by : Eben Goodale
Download or read book Mixed-Species Groups of Animals written by Eben Goodale and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2017-04-26 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed-Species Groups of Animals: Behavior, Community Structure, and Conservation presents a comprehensive discussion on the mixed-species groups of animals, a spectacular and accessible example of the complexity of species interactions. They are found in a wide range of animals, including invertebrates, fish, mammals and birds, and in different habitats, both terrestrial and aquatic, throughout the world. While there are more than 500 articles on this subject scattered in separate categories of journals, there has yet to be a general, cross-taxa book-length introduction to this subject that summarizes the behavior and community structure of these groups. The authors first survey the diversity of spatial associations among animals and then concentrate on moving groups. They review the major classes of theories that have been developed to explain their presence, particularly in how groups increase foraging efficiency and decrease predation. Finally, they explore the intricacies of species interactions, such as communication, that explain species roles in groups and discuss what implications these social systems have for conservation. - Functions as a single resource for readers inside and outside of academia on mixed-species groups, serving as a foundation for future research in this field - Begins with an empirical summary of mixed-species distribution and reviews how the theories explaining their adaptive benefits are supported by the evidence - Includes many aspects of mixed-group behavior (e.g. foraging, communication, collective decision-making, dominance, social roles of species and leadership, relationship to conservation) that were not previously or easily accessible
Book Synopsis Pinnipeds and El Niño by : Fritz Trillmich
Download or read book Pinnipeds and El Niño written by Fritz Trillmich and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Niño is a meteorological and oceanographic phenomenon, which occurs at irregular intervals in the eastern tropical Pacific. Its most obvious characteristic is the warming of surface waters, which causes enormous disturbances of the marine environment. A severe Niño may also affect continental systems worldwide. This book gathers in a comprehensive way the information available on the effects of the exceptionally strong 1982-83 Niño on a group of marine mammals, the pinnipeds. It presents an analysis of the effects of environmental stress on the populations of top predators. Data and interpretations are based on a most unusual collection of long-term studies of pinniped population dynamics, behavior and ecology which spanned the El Niño event. The responses of pinniped populations to the El Niño disturbance of the marine ecosystem also has important implications for the management and conservation of marine mammal populations.

Book Synopsis Spatial Ecology of Marine Top Predators in the North Pacific by : Yutaka Watanuki
Download or read book Spatial Ecology of Marine Top Predators in the North Pacific written by Yutaka Watanuki and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There are many applications and uses of spatial distributional data on marine birds and mammals in the North Pacific, including the design of pelagic marine protected areas, assessments of ecosystem health, modeling top-down effects of marine predators on food web dynamics, and projected future distributions of rare or threatened populations and species under climate change. Distributional data come in many different flavors, including ship-based observations of density and remotely-sensed tracking and movement data. These data provide complementary perspectives on species distributions but should not be combined for a variety of reasons including different spatial and temporal scales and resolution. There are many high quality datasets on marine birds and mammals in the North Pacific available for analyses, including the North Pacific Pelagic Seabird Database and the Seabird Tracking Database. More information is becoming available all the time. Because ship-based and tracking observations are not spatially and temporally comprehensive, species-habitat models (i.e., coupling of apparent spatial distributions with biophysical factors that predict species distributions) are necessary. There are many different and highly technical approaches to habitat modeling or species distribution modeling; composite model output may provide optimal information, but this depends on the goals of the study"--Page vii.

Book Synopsis Primates and Cetaceans by : Juichi Yamagiwa
Download or read book Primates and Cetaceans written by Juichi Yamagiwa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the editors present a view of the socioecology of primates and cetaceans in a comparative perspective to elucidate the social evolution of highly intellectual mammals in terrestrial and aquatic environments. Despite obvious differences in morphology and eco-physiology, there are many cases of comparable, sometimes strikingly similar patterns of sociobehavioral complexity. A number of long-term field studies have accumulated a substantial amount of data on the life history of various taxa, foraging ecology, social and sexual relationships, demography, and various patterns of behavior: from dynamic fission–fusion to long-term stable societies; from male-bonded to bisexually bonded to matrilineal groups. Primatologists and cetologists have come together to provide four evolutionary themes: (1) social complexity and behavioral plasticity, (2) life history strategies and social evolution, (3) the interface between behavior, demography, and conservation, and (4) selected topics in comparative behavior. These comparisons of taxa that are evolutionarily distant but live in comparable complex sociocognitive environments boost our appreciation of their sophisticated mammalian societies and can advance our understanding of the ecological factors that have shaped their social evolution. This knowledge also facilitates a better understanding of the day-to-day challenges these animals face in the human-dominated world and may improve the capacity and effectiveness of our conservation efforts.
