SRKW summer prey - Prey species and stock specific consumption estimates for SRKW in their summer range

Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) are listed as a Distinct Population Segment under the Endangered Species Act. Data concerning their prey species and stock specific consumption estimates for SRKW in their summer range is important to understand trophic effects influencing their distribution and abundance. Estimates of these parameters allow prediction of population level responses to prey abundance and seasonality.

No Delay

The Northwest Fisheries Science Center facilitates backup and recovery of all data and IT components which are managed by IT Operations through the capture of static (point-in-time) backup data to physical media. Once data is captured to physical media (every 1-3 days), a duplicate is made and routinely (weekly) transported to an offsite archive facility where it is maintained throughout the data's applicable life-cycle.
