Estimation of survival of adult Florida manatees in the Crystal River, at Blue Spring, and on the Atlantic coast. 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: 194-222. 9 tabs. 3 figs. 1 app. Aug. 1995.
–Abstr. in O'Shea et al. (1992: 21). Application of Cormack-Jolly-Seber open population models to manatee photoidentification databases and radiotelemetry studies indicated that survival at Crystal River and Blue Spring may be high enough for population growth, while the Atlantic Coast population may be in decline. Adult survivorship seemed to be constant with age in all three study groups.
