Summary
Abstract: The first of two spring vessel surveys of the GulfCet II Program was
conducted in 1996 in oceanic and upper continental slope waters of U.S. Gulf of
Mexico by NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center to examine the distribution
and estimate abundance of cetaceans in U.S. waters. This dataset contains
sightings of not only cetaceans but also other species including sea turtles,
fish and shark ... View entire text

Purpose: The purpose of this survey is to examine the distribution and estimate
abundance of cetaceans in U.S. waters. Specific objectives of this survey are:
1. Collect line-transect data to estimate abundances and define the
distributions of cetacean species in oceanic and selected continental shelf
waters of the northern Gulf of Mexico. 2. Obtain biopsy samples of skin from
selected cetacean species for ... View entire text
