Ecology and Distribution of Blue Whales in New Zealand Across Spatial and Temporal Scales

Creator:

Barlow, Dawn R.

Abstract:

The distribution of mobile marine predators often reflects underlying dynamic ecological processes. The geographical focus of this PhD is the South Taranaki Bight (STB) of New Zealand, where wind-driven coastal upwelling generates productivity and prey to support a blue whale foraging ground. The STB is also New Zealand’s most industrial...
