Despite its remote and seemingly rigorous environment, the
Antarctic is the world's most important habitat for seals,
currently supporting more seals than all other parts of the world
combined. As various national Antarctic programmes were established
to study these animals, the need to standardize techniques became
apparent. This book, arising from work by the Scientific Committee
on Antarctic Research (Group of Specialists on Seals), gives a
detailed account of well-tried and, where possible, agreed
methodologies, techniques, procedures and rationale for the
collection and initial analysis of data on the biology and
population ecology of Antarctic seals. This volume will not only
help facilitate comparisons between different regions of
Antarctica, but will also provide a guide for those studying seals
in other parts of the world and those carrying out research on
other large mammal species.
