Modelling the demographic causes of the UK common seal decline

Decreasing numbers of moulting common seals in Scotland have prompted concerns about the state of the population. Proximately, the observed declines could be due to changes in 1) fecundity, 2) mortality or 3) the timing of moult in relation to the window of aerial survey. It is essential that the re...
