Species Distribution: Blainville's Beaked Whale - Hawaii
This dataset contains a collection of known point locations of Blainville's beaked whales identified either via automated satellite tracking of tagged organisms or through direct human observation via shipborne and aerial surveys. This can be useful for assessing species abundance, population structure, habitat use, and behavior. This collection is aggregated from multiple data sources and survey periods listed below. Each data point contains attributes for further information about the time and source of the observation. This dataset was compiled by the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) and may be updated in the future if additional data sources are acquired. Cascadia Research Collective (CRC) has been undertaking surveys for odontocetes in Hawaiian waters since 2000. From photo-identification and satellite tagging there is evidence of a small resident population of Blainville's beaked whales off of Hawaii Island as well as an offshore population. Less is known about this species around the other Hawaiian islands. In addition, Dr. Joseph Mobley of the Marine Mammal Research Consultants (MMRC) led aerial surveys for cetaceans in Hawaiian waters from 1993-2003.
