| Title: | Whale survey during the 2022 IWC-Pacific Ocean Whale and Ecosystem Research, IWC-POWER, from the research vessel Yushin-Maru No. 2 in the North Pacific from 2022-08-02 to 2022-09-30 (NCEI Accession 0276785) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains whale observation data and cruise report of whale survey in the North Pacific conducted in the US EEZ under the guidance of the International Whale Committee (IWC). IWC-POWER cruises in the North Pacific follow the series of IWC/IDCR-SOWER (Southern Ocean Whale and Ecosystem Research) cruises that were conducted in the Antarctic since 1978. The 13th annual IWC-POWER cruise was conducted between 02 August, 2022 and 30 September, 2022 south of the western Aleutian Islands, within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. This area was also surveyed in 2010 on the first POWER cruise. The survey was conducted aboard the Japanese R/V Yushin-Maru No. 2. The cruise was organized as a joint project between the IWC and Japan. The cruise plan was endorsed at the 68D IWC/Scientific Committee (IWC/SC) meeting. Researchers from the IWC, the U.S., and Japan participated in the survey. Whale observation data are in CSV format. Cruise report is in PDF. This cruise is U.S. State Department MSR U2022-004 as part of the World Data Service for Oceanography. |
