Description:

"During 2012, NARWSS flew 275 hours on 64 surveys including a survey of Roseway Basin and a directed survey to search for 2 mother-calf pairs reported south of Long Island NY. NARWSS detected 279 right whales (including repeats of the same individual), with 270 right whales sighted within survey blocks and 9 right whales sighted during transit to or from survey areas. No right whales were sighted on Roseway Basin or south of Long Island. Table 1 summarizes survey effort and right whale sightings by month. Figures 2a-d display the locations of right whales and survey effort by season. Table 2 provides a comparison of NARWSS flights, flight hours, and right whale sightings across years"--Page 1.
