Northwest Fisheries Science Center, 2024: Killer whale morphology - Variation in morphology of killer whale ecotypes, https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inport/item/30832.
Full Citation Examples
We are using elliptic Fourier analysis to determine the patterns of variation in morphology of dorsal fin shape, saddle patch shape, and eye patch shape of resident, transient, and offshore killer whales in the northeastern Pacific ocean. We will also be looking for evidence of genetic variation underlying these patterns in southern resident killer whales.
Morphology and heritability of morphology by ecotype, sex (if available), age (if available), and parentage (if available).

---|---|
Approximate Percentage of Budget for these Data Devoted to Data Management: | 2 |
Do these Data Comply with the Data Access Directive?: | No |
Is Access to the Data Limited Based on an Approved Waiver?: | No |
If Distributor (Data Hosting Service) is Needed, Please Indicate: | No |
Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Dissemination: | 0 days |
If Delay is Longer than Latency of Automated Processing, Indicate Under What Authority Data Access is Delayed: |
No Delay |
Actual or Planned Long-Term Data Archive Location: | NCEI-MD |
Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Archiving: | 90 |
How Will the Data Be Protected from Accidental or Malicious Modification or Deletion Prior to Receipt by the Archive?: |
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. |
