5/93 - 2/94 THE ORCA PROJECT | Project Research Liaison Associate |
| |
Contracted research conducted for photo-identification of Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) populations off coastal New Zealand and sub-Antarctica regions. Research goals were identified and established for individual regional population dynamics & migratory patterns within selected field research study areas which included both Transient & Resident species. Project conducted with joint funding from Cetacean Society International, World Wildlife Federation and the University of Auckland. |
