The study area extended from New Jersey, USA (74º 20'N 39º 40’W), eastward to the Gulf of St. Lawrence (58º 30'W), and northward to the Bay of Fundy (45º 30'N).The objective of this survey was to describe the habitat of and estimate the abundance of cetaceans and turtles that are in the study area.Perpendicular distance to the animal is not publicly available.2006072620060826ground conditionCompleteNone plannedNorth Atlantic-73.96-58.7845.1739.74 NoneMarine Animal SurveyMarine BiologyMarine mammalsSea turtlesVisual SightingAircraftNoneNorth AtlanticTaxon coveredMarine mammalsSea turtlesRays and sharksIntegrated Taxonomic Information SystemUnknownNot applicableDownloaded April, 2004http://www.itis.usda.gov/Refer to the contact information of the datasetRefer to the contact information of the datasetmailing and physical address
