information
This data set contains focal animal observations and other behavioral data recorded during special studies conducted by PSD personnel and cooperating scientists as part of the ongoing monk seal population assessment and survival enhancement efforts. These include Effects of Tagging and Association Patterns studies conducted at Lisianski Island in 1982, Pair Watches recorded as part of a behavioral study at Laysan Island in 1985, behavior data collected at Sea Life Park, and mother-pup observations collected at Trig Island in 2009 (roughly replicating Boness' earlier FFS mother-pup study). Most data have been entered, however some data are housed at PIFSC in paper form.
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is the lead agency responsible for the recovery of the Hawaiian monk seal. Each year the NMFS Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, Marine Mammal Research Division conducts studies at the main breeding sites to provide information necessary to evaluate (1) the status and trends of the monk seal subpopulations, (2) natural history traits such as survival, reproduction, growth, behavior, and feeding habits, and (3) the success of various activities designed to facilitate population growth. Focal animal sampling and other behavioral observation data were collected to evaluate the effects of tagging on weaned pups and understand and develop methods management tools to mitigate male aggression and increase female survival.

Representativeness
Data were collected at Hawaiian monk seal haulout locations during variable-length field seasons using various protocols. Focal animal observations were not conducted at all breeding sites and years, and do not equally represent all monk seal size/sex classes.
Bias
Data were collected at Hawaiian monk seal haulout locations during variable-length field seasons using various protocols. Focal animal observations were not conducted at all breeding sites and years, and do not equally represent all monk seal size/sex classes.
Completeness Measure
Data should be completely entered, reviewed, and edited prior to analysis.
Precision
Data are collected over an extended period by multiple observers and protocols.
Completeness Report
Data should be completely entered, reviewed, and edited prior to analysis.
