This record provides an overview of the scope and research output of NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub Project A13 - "Estimation of population abundance and mixing of southern right whales in the Australian and New Zealand regions". For specific data outputs from this project, please see child records associated with this metadata.<br /> <br /> --------------------<br /> A comprehensive understanding of the population abundance and degree of spatial connectivity of southern right whales in Australian waters is currently lacking. This limits assessments of the species recovery and understanding of the nature and degree of difference between the south-eastern and south-western Australian populations. This project will provide, for the first time, an abundance estimate of the total Australian population of southern right whales. It will also investigate the connectedness of whales that utilise breeding areas on the eastern, southern and western coasts of Australia. Information provided by this project will allow the Australian government to better evaluate progress made against the Conservation Management Plan for southern right whales and ensure conservation efforts for the species are effectively coordinated at the regional level.<br /> <br /> Planned Outputs<br /> • Data summaries for populating models used to estimate abundance and connectivity<br /> • An estimate of population abundance at the national scale and associated uncertainty<br /> • An evaluation of movement and spatial mixing across southern Australia

本记录概述了NESP海洋生物多样性中心项目A13 ----“澳大利亚和新西兰地区南露脊鲸种群丰度和混合情况估计”的范围和研究成果。有关此项目的特定数据输出，请参阅与此元数据关联的子记录。<br /> <br /> --------------------<br /> 目前缺乏对澳大利亚沃茨南露脊鲸种群丰度和空间连通性程度的全面了解。这限制了对物种恢复的评估以及对澳大利亚东南部和西南部种群之间差异的性质和程度的理解。该项目将首次提供澳大利亚南露脊鲸总种群的丰度估计。它还将调查利用澳大利亚东部，南部和西部海岸繁殖区的鲸鱼的连通性。该项目提供的信息将使澳大利亚政府能够更好地评估南露脊鲸保护管理计划的进展情况，并确保在区域一级有效协调该物种的保护工作。<br /> <br /> 计划产出<br /> ·用于估计丰度和连通性的人口模型的数据摘要<br /> ·对全国范围内人口丰度的估计和相关的不确定性<br /> ·对澳大利亚南部的运动和空间混合的评估
