Interim report of the Technical Workshop on Manatee Population Biology.

–Described in its Introduction as "an interim document designed to provide preliminary information to parties interested in the overall structure and outcome" of a workshop held at the University of Florida on Feb. 4-6, 1992. Includes 15 abstracts by various participants, as well as "Topics for consideration by the working groups", reports of the latter, conclusions, and lists of the participants. "A peer-reviewed and professionally edited volume containing the full text of the presented scientific papers will be forthcoming..."; this was published as O'Shea et al. (1995).

1994
Trends in counts of Florida manatees at winter aggregation sites.
Jour. Wildl. Manage. 58(4): 642-654. 2 tabs. 3 figs. Oct. 1994.
–Analyzes data from aerial surveys, 1977-1992, and correlates manatee numbers with temperature covariates. Results indicate an increase in the counts at east-coast aggregation sites, but this may not reflect a real population trend.

1995
Trends and patterns in mortality of manatees in Florida, 1974-1992. In: T. J. O'Shea, B. B. Ackerman, & H. F. Percival (eds.), Population biology of the Florida manatee (q.v.).
Information & Technology Rept. (U.S. Dept. Interior, Natl. Biological Service) (vi + 289) 1: 223-258. 23 tabs. 10 figs. Aug. 1995.
–Abstr. in O'Shea et al. (1992: 22). Statistical analysis of data from over 2,000 recovered carcasses shows a 5.9%/yr. increase in number of carcasses, 9.3%/yr. increase in deaths from watercraft collisions, 11.9%/yr. increase in perinatal deaths, and no significant change in other human-related causes of death. Geographical and seasonal patterns in mortality are also documented, as are catastrophic die-offs. Threats to manatees and their habitat are expected to increase.

An evaluation of strip-transect aerial survey methods for monitoring manatee populations in Florida.
Wildl. Soc. Bull. 26(3): 561-570. 3 tabs. 3 figs. "Fall 1998"; publ. 1999.
–Surveys of the Banana River, Florida, in 1993-94 were the first to use replicated strip-transect methods on manatees. Concludes that this protocol could detect a 5% annual rate of change in <4 years with power of 0.75 or more, and recommends that such surveys be used in the Banana River to corroborate other evidence of population trends on the east coast of Florida.
