HLY-07-01 and HLY-07-02 Observations of Marine Mammals of Beringia [Ray, G.C.]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/102.080

Summary
This dataset contains marine mammal observations onboard the US Coast Guard
Cutter Healy during the Bering Sea Ecosystem Study-Bering Sea Integrated
Ecosystem Research Program (BEST-BSIERP) 2007 0701 and 0702 cruises in the
Bering Sea. BEST-BSIERP together are the Bering Sea project. The objective of
this project has been to observe marine mammals in the context of their
sea-ice "seascape" habitat. Emphasis has been placed on the winter-spring
period during which Pacific walruses and ribbon seals use sea ice for
reproduction, molting, rest, and as a platform for feeding and migration. The
thesis is that marine mammals partition sea-ice habitat according to their
life-history requirements: for Pacific walruses, "broken pack" and for ribbon
seals "loose pack" provide this habitat. The data files are in Excel, csv and
jpg format.
