PUP PRODUCTION OF HARP SEALS, PHOCA-GROENLANDICA, IN THE NORTHWEST ATLANTIC
Northwest Atlantic harp seal, Phoca groenlandica, pup production was estimated from aerial surveys flown off eastern Newfoundland (''Front'') and in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (''Gulf'') during March 1990. One visual and two independent photographic estimates we...
