Description:

Abstract: This dataset contains the relative abundance of prey species found in harbor seal and Steller sea lion scats. Scats were collected within 4 geographic regions around the Kodiak Archipelago year round between 1999 and 2009. The primary objectives were to determine prey species consumed by Steller sea lions and harbor seals, compare prey use to seasonal availability and compare diets among sympatric predators. Purpose: The Gulf Apex Predator-prey program (GAP) was initiated in1999 by University of Alaska Fairbanks faculty in Kodiak to address trophic-level questions of immediate biological and economic concern in the western Gulf of Alaska. The program’s goal is to document trophic relationships between Steller sea lions, their prey, competitors, and predators in the Kodiak region. Fundamental to the GAP program is the integration of distinct but related hypothesis-driven research projects. Although focused on sea lion concerns, GAP’s interrelated studies also broadly assess the degree of dietary overlap among Kodiak’s sympatric apex predators while exploring processes that drive populations of their prey within a dynamic marine environment. These studies overlap spatially and temporally, allowing synchronous collection of predator and prey data and synoptic assessment of their

file:///GAP/Metadata/Complete/Mammals/GAP_Pinniped_Scats.html[2/1/12 4:16:39 PM] seasonal interactions. The Gulf Apex Predator-prey program is planned as a multiyear sampling effort that will allow monitoring inter-annual variability against which effects of human intervention may be compared. GAP investigators strive to facilitate synergistic linkage to related studies and efficiently broaden research beyond the scope of individual projects and have already fostered collaboration with fisheries and marine mammal researchers within the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Alaska Fisheries Science Center and Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG).
