Sea Otter Aerial Survey Data from Southeast Alaska, 2002-2003
This dataset consists of three tables related to abundance and distribution of northern sea otters (Enhydra lutris kenyoni) in Southeast Alaska, based on data collected during a series of population-wide aerial surveys. The dataset consists of: (1) sea otter counts along strip transects, (2) sea otter counts in Intensive Search Unit (ISU) within the transects, and (3) Transect coordinates.
