Abstract:
The Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center conducted cetacean surveys aboard the NOAA Oscar Elton Sette during the ship's transit from Hawaii to Guam (20 January - 6 February 2010) and covered 2,380 km of on-effort trackline. There were 24 cetacean sightings, most of which were not identified to species. Eight of the cetacean groups were identified to six species. Time and weather limitations prevented the ship’s approach of more of the sighted cetacean groups.

摘要：太平洋岛屿渔业科学中心搭乘“NOAA奥斯卡·埃尔顿·塞特号”科考船，于2010年1月20日至2月6日期间执行从夏威夷至关岛的航渡任务，并在此过程中开展鲸类（cetacean）调查，累计完成2380千米有效作业航线。本次调查共记录24次鲸类目击事件，其中绝大多数未能鉴定至物种级别；8个鲸类类群被鉴定为6个物种。受时间与天气条件限制，科考船无法靠近更多已目击的鲸类类群。
