HARBOR PORPOISE ( PHOCOENA PHOCOENA ) ABUNDANCE IN ALASKA: BRISTOL BAY TO SOUTHEAST ALASKA, 1991‐1993
A bstract Between 1991 and 1993, Alaska harbor porpoise ( Phocoena phocoena ) abundance was investigated during aerial surveys throughout much of the coastal and offshore waters from Bristol Bay in the eastern Bering Sea to Dixon Entrance in Southeast Alaska. Line‐transect methodology was used, and...
