| Abstract |
Collaboration between the International Whaling Commission, and national programs conducting multidisciplinary ecosystem research in the Antarctic under Southern Ocean Global Ecosystem Dynamics (SO GLOBEC) program and the Commission for the Convention on Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) occurred during five research cruises between April 2002 and April 2003. Visual survey, passive acoustic and tissue biopsy work was conducted by IWC observers and collaborating passive acoustics scientists. Reported here are the preliminary results from these cruises: mapped distribution patterns of cetaceans from visual survey sighting data; individual photo identification records; species identification and positions of animals recorded on sonobuoys; and descriptions of environmental conditions observed or recorded as part of the multidisciplinary effort. |
