MODEL_TYPE
n/a
No
No
Active
Identifies what type of model was used to calculate density. ; Source: NOAA Fisheries Southwest Fisheries Science Center
Can be "habitat-based density model," "HBDM pro rated by ratio of win spr to sum fall" (Humpback whale winter spring), or "Telemetry based habitat model" (Blue whale winter spring)

No
No
Active
Density value in animals/km^2; Source: From model

12
UNCERTAINTY
n/a
No
No
Active
Numerical uncertainty value (CV). When the models for a species/guild do not have dynamic predictors, uncertainty info is not available. In this case the field has a value of -99999.; Source: From model
0 to 9999
13
UNCER_QUAL
n/a
No
No
Active
Qualitative uncertainty value (description of uncertainty when numerical value is not present or to describe additional qualitative information. Duke used this column to further define the type of model that was used which called back to other documentation that described how the model was run and how it performed) Elizabeth Becker should be providing this info; Source: NOAA Fisheries Southwest Fisheries Science Center
Not used; value always empty
14
MODEL_VERS
n/a
No
No
Active
