Description
Original provider: HDR Environmental, Operations and Construction, Inc. Dataset credits: The U.S. Navy Marine Species Monitoring Program Abstract: Data in this dataset represent animal sightings recorded during a 10-day shore-based marine mammal survey in the Mariana Islands. Observations were conducted from two separate vantage points, both located on Andersen Air Force Base on the northeast coast of Guam. Survey dates were 3-12 Mar 2015. Work was performed under HDR task order KB23 (IDIQ contract award N62470-10-D-3011, NAVFAC LANT).
