Category 3: Abstract

The southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina) population at Macquarie Island represents … about 10% of the world’s population. The number of adult females breeding at the island has … decreased substantially since the first whole island census was conducted in 1952.

The annual numbers of Leopard Seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) sighted at Macquarie Island (over 56 years) are correlated significantly with periodic flux of sea-ice concentration south-east of the island. Abstract of the SCAR Open Science Conference, Hobart, 12-14 July 2006, 2006 (Ref: 12524)
