Harbour Seal population estimates generated from counts taken during aerial surveys need to be corrected for the proportion of animals in the water and not counted. A correction factor is developed by following the behavior of a sample of satellite-tagged seals. The last tags were deployed in the 1990’s. This project will update correction factors by deploying satellite tags and tracking seal behavior over several months. |
