Abstract: |
Effort points with sampling conditions collected by the forward team (T1) . |
Purpose: |
main goals are to provide effort status, sampling conditions recorded by observers and platform movement data during marine mammal visual observations performed by forward team (T1) |
Supplemental Information: |
Within files for each team, effort points can be cross-referenced to cues, sightings, and non-mammal occurrences via eventID |
