Coastal and Offshore Oregon Marine Mammal Ecological Study

Ocean Science Analytics is using open-access data from the Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI) in combination with accessible remotely sensed data to study a dynamic environment along the coastal northeast Pacific Ocean. Specifically we are looking at the influence of the recent warm water anomaly on marine mammal habitat use through exploration of environmental variables and vocal foraging activity.
