About
Aerial shoreline surveys following U.S. Navy (Navy) training events were conducted in the Hawaii Range Complex to monitor for strandings and to document sightings of marine mammals and sea turtles in an effort to answer the monitoring question: “Do marine mammals strand along shorelines of the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) within 1 week following Navy training events?” This report summarizes marine mammal and sea turtle sighting data obtained during 67.5 hours of aerial survey effort over 16 days in the MHI between 2010 and 2014.
