Sydeman, W2015https://doi.org/10.82144/cd03e645OBIS-SEAMAP507http://seamap.env.duke.edu/dataset/507OBIS-SEAMAPVersion 1.7.0 This dataset contains observation data of marine birds and mammals from California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) from 1987-2006 and Rockfish cruises along the California coast from 1996-2006 by National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Data were collected aboard research vessels using standardized marine bird and mammal survey techniques (Tasker et al. 1984, Buckland et al. 1993). Marine birds and mammals were observed in a 90-degree arc from the bow to one side of the ship out to 300m. Counts are summarized by species and behavior along the transects in 3 km bins. Data span years 1987 - 2006.Relating changing ocean productivity patterns and upper-trophic predator (seabirds and marine mammals) distributions to the underlying physical oceanographic variability enhances our understanding of the ecological context of the CalCOFI and NMFS database, thereby aiding in the interpretation of large-scale hydrographic and ocean productivity patterns. An inter-disciplinary, ecosystem-level perspective will provide new insight into offshore California wildlife habitat associations and how apex marine organisms (including fish with diets similar to seabirds and/or mammals) respond to differences in ocean climate, productivity, and water mass properties, information needed to manage fisheries and wildlife under changing ocean conditions.[UPDATE 2013-03-25] The following species codes had been associated with invalid species names. These were corrected to valid species names. WWSC White-Winged Scoter => Melanitta fusca deglandi STAL Short-Tailed Albatross => Phoebastria albatrus LAAL Laysan Albatross => Diomedea immutabilis LETU Leatherback Turtle => Dermochelys coriacea These data are publicly available without restriction. However, it is suggested that potential users contact the data contributor (Marine Division Director at PRBO Conservation Science, marinedirector@prbo.org) or PI Bill Sydeman (wsydeman@faralloninstitute.org) for questions concerning the use of dataset (methods, accuracy, help with interpretation etc.). The dataset is also available at <a href='http://oceaninformatics.ucsd.edu/datazoo/' target='external'>Ocean Informatics Data Zoo</a> (http://oceaninformatics.ucsd.edu/datazoo/). The CalCOFI and Rockfish projects are on going. The Principle Investigators of these projects are as follows (listed those in recent years only): Rockfish survey 2008, Leg 1/2: Bill Sydeman, Farallon Institute for Advanced Ecosystem Research 2008, Leg 3: Jaime Jahncke, PRBO Conservation Science 2009, Leg 1/2: Bill Sydeman, Farallon Institute for Advanced Ecosystem Research 2009, Leg 3: Jaime Jahncke, PRBO Conservation Science CalCOFI survey 2006-2007: Bill Sydeman, PRBO Conservation Science 2007-current: Bill Sydeman, Farallon Institute for Advanced Ecosystem Research These recent data are available from these individuals or organizations upon request. The recent data by Bill Sydeman will be also available through OBIS-SEAMAP in the near future. Each sighting is a total of all of the birds/mammals of that species and behavior seen in an area (approx. 3 km long and 300m wide). The location is represented at the middle of the bin. Length may be less at the end of a transect, and width may be less depending on the weather. Each bin is temporally about 10 minutes in duration (depending on ship speed). Tracklines on this map represent on-effort only. Off-effort tracks may be obtained from the data provider.1987050220061104ground conditionCompleteNone plannedNortheastern Pacific Ocean-126.474237-117.234540.09133129.77212 NoneMarine Animal SurveyMarine BiologyMarine mammalsSeabirdsSea turtlesVesselVisual SightingNoneNortheastern Pacific OceanTaxon coveredMarine mammalsseabirdsSea turtlesRays and sharksIntegrated Taxonomic Information SystemUnknownNot applicableDownloaded April, 2004http://www.itis.usda.gov/Refer to the contact information of the datasetRefer to the contact information of the datasetmailing and physical address

Starting/ending latitude and longitude coordinates (START_LAT, STOP_LAT, START_LON, STOP_LON) represent where each bin began/ended. There is continuous survey coverage between the start and end coordinates, although any given transect/bin or portion of a transect/bin may or may not have observations of seabirds or marine mammals. The average latitude and longitude coordinates (MID_LAT and MID_LON) correspond to the calculated center point of the bin, and may not be the exact midpoint passed through by the cruise survey track. Bird and mammal observation locations have been summarized to fit these bins, and are identified by cruise, date, transect, and bin (GIS_KEY), and can be linked to the base data as such. Within each bin, bird and mammal observations for a given species are summed. This generalization has removed actual bird and mammal observation locations from the database, and the bin coordinates in the base data will correspond only generally to actual coordinates where birds and mammals were observed.Data records represent bins of survey data derived from continuous transect data, with each record representing a unique species and behavior in the bin. There may be muliple records for a given species if multiple behaviors were observed. Bins were created using software designed for this purpose.Data records represent bins of survey data derived from continuous transect data, with each record representing a unique species and behavior in the bin.
