This book was released on 2002 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) at five islands in the Southern California Bight (SCB) were counted during 1981-2001 to monitor status and trends of the population. Counts, stratified by areas within each island, were made during winter breeding season at Santa Barbara Island (1984-2001), San Miguel Island (1985-2001), San Nicolas Island (1988-2001), and Santa Rosa Island (1990-2001) and year-round at San Clemente Island (1981- 2001). At Santa Barbara Island the number of births declined at an average annual rate of -4.8 percent from 1984-2001 (R2 = 0.20, slope = -0.05, P = 0.08). At San Clemente Island the number of births increased at an average annual rate of 13.4 percent from 1982-2001 (R2 = 0.506, slope = 0.126, P

Download or read book Elephant Seals written by Burney J. Le Boeuf and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest of all seals, elephant seals rank among the most impressive of marine mammals. They are renowned for their spectacular recovery from near-extinction at the end of the nineteenth century when seal hunters nearly eliminated the entire northern species. No other vertebrate has come so close to extinction and made such a complete recovery. The physiological extremes that elephant seals can tolerate are also remarkable: females fast for a month while lactating, and the largest breeding males fast for over one hundred days during the breeding seasons, at which times both sexes lose forty percent of their body weight. Elephant seals dive constantly during their long foraging migrations, spending more time under water than most whales and diving deeper and longer than any other marine mammal. This first book-length discussion of elephant seals brings together worldwide expertise from scientists who describe and debate recent research, including the history and status of various populations, their life-history tactics, and other findings obtained with the help of modern microcomputer diving instruments attached to free-ranging seals. Essential for all marine mammalogists for its information and its methodological innovations, Elephant Seals will also illuminate current debates about species extinctions and possible means of preventing them.
