| Title: | Sea Otter Surveys of Yakutat Bay and Adjacent Gulf of Alaska Areas - Cape Hinchinbrook to Cape Spencer from 1995-08-07 to 1996-05-23 (NCEI Accession 9800017) |
| Abstract: | Sea otter sighting data including location; point locations for the beginning and end of each transect were programmed into an aircraft global positioning system, each sea otter sighting was recorded by hand on a data sheet by the observer. Sea otter density was estimated from the aerial counts and applied to the entire study area for an estimate of population abundance. Distribution Survey: 8-9 August 1995 (Cape Suckling to Cape Spencer); 19-23 August 1996 (Cape Hinchinbrook to Cape Suckling). Abundance Survey: 7-9 August 1995 (Yakutat Bay) |

| Supplementary information: | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
