This book was released on 2017-05-04 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine mammals face a large array of stressors, including loss of habitat, chemical and noise pollution, and bycatch in fishing, which alone kills hundreds of thousands of marine mammals per year globally. To discern the factors contributing to population trends, scientists must consider the full complement of threats faced by marine mammals. Once populations or ecosystems are found to be at risk of adverse impacts, it is critical to decide which combination of stressors to reduce to bring the population or ecosystem into a more favorable state. Assessing all stressors facing a marine mammal population also provides the environmental context for evaluating whether an additional activity could threaten it. Approaches to Understanding the Cumulative Effects of Stressors on Marine Mammals builds upon previous reports to assess current methodologies used for evaluating cumulative effects and identify new approaches that could improve these assessments. This review focuses on ways to quantify exposure-related changes in the behavior, health, or body condition of individual marine mammals and makes recommendations for future research initiatives.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper reports the second phase of an effort to use instrumented marine mammals to measure selected environmental parameters and to relay data on these parameters to tracking aircraft and ultimately to orbiting satellites. A Pacific common dolphin, Delphinus delphis, was fitted with an instrument package and tracked from shipboard and from specially equipped Navy S-2D aircraft. The preferability of smaller odontocetes over larger mystictes as environmental survey platforms was demonstrated. Data collected compared favorably with data from previous radio tracks and with on-site measurements using conventional sampling techniques. Maximum transmitter range and optimum tracking and data collection altitudes were demonstrated for present systems. (Author).
