The survey area comprised five strata (three visual and two photographic) encompassing high use areas around three river estuaries where recurring aggregations of WHB beluga are found during the summer months. The photographic surveys completely covered high density aggregations in the Churchill River and near the mouth of the Seal River. Poor weather conditions prevented replicated surveys of all but the Churchill River photographic stratum. Near-surface abundance estimates for each stratum were adjusted for availability bias using dive data collected from eight satellite-tagged WHB belugas during the same period as the aerial survey. Summed corrected stratum abundance estimates provided a total stock abundance estimate of 54,473"--Abstract, p. iv. |
