SEFSC Southeast Cetacean Aerial Survey, 1995

Southeast Cetacean Aerial Survey, SECAS, was conducted in 1995 by NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC) to estimate Cetaceans abundance. This data set contains sightings of cetaceans and sea turtles as well as other species, including fish and shark, observed during the aerial survey. Marine mammals and sea turtles observed includes as follows. The full taxonomic information will be found in Taxonomy section. << Cetacean >> Atlantic spotted dolphin Cuvier?s beaked whale Humpback whale Northern right whale Pantropical spotted dolphin Standard Bottlenose dolphin Striped dolphin << Sea Turtle >> Green turtle Hardshell Kemp's ridley Leatherback Loggerhead Survey's transects information is available in 'SECAS95Efforts.' Visual representation of this data set will be provided in the forms of ESRI's coverage and shapefile.

本数据集为东南海域鲸类航空调查（Southeast Cetacean Aerial Survey, SECAS），由美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，NOAA）下属的东南渔业科学中心（Southeast Fisheries Science Center, SEFSC）于1995年实施，旨在估算鲸类种群丰度。本数据集包含本次航空调查中观测到的鲸类、海龟及其他物种（包括鱼类与鲨鱼）的目击记录。
