Distance sampling surveys, particularly shipboard or aerial line
transects, are widely used to estimate the population size of marine
mammals. Good survey design is critical for obtaining reliable results
in such surveys
(4) use spatial and temporal modelling methods to investigate how
patterns in porpoise densities vary with biological and physical
oceanographic variables.
