Description:

This report presents a new Bayesian modeling approach to estimate annual calf production of ENP gray whales that more fully accounts for uncertainty during unsampled periods. Here we provide estimates of calf production for the 1994-2021 period using the Bayesian approach and compare them to estimates using the previous methods.
