Dear MARMAM Colleagues, My co-authors and I are happy to announce our new publication (Note) in Marine Mammal Science: Sea otter (Enhydra lutris) abundance assessment for the Kuril Island population in Far Eastern Russia.
Our paper presents results from the sea otter survey conducted in 2012 along the Kuril Islands. Using this data and several environmental variables, we have calculated the updated abundance estimate for this remote population. Our findings indicate that this population might be undergoing a decline, and we provide recommendations for future research and management priorities.
