Brief description

In November-December 1991, dugongs, sea turtles and cetaceans were counted from the air at an overall sampling intensity of 5.8% over a total area of 30,560 square km in the Torres Strait region. The population estimates for dugongs an sea turtles were corrected for perception bias, and standardised for availability bias, with survey and species-specific correction factors. The estimates for cetaceans were corrected for perception bias only. Management recommendations are made. Refer to the report compiled for AFMA: Marsh H and Lawler I. (1992) The status of dugongs, sea turtles and dolphins in the Torres Strait region. Report to the Australian Fisheries Management Authority, June 1992.
