Visual line-transect surveys for cetaceans were conducted in the
central-eastern Bering Sea (CEBS) from 5 July to 5 August 1999, in association with a pollock stock assessment survey aboard the NOAA ship Miller Freeman. Observers scanned for cetaceans with 25x (Big Eye) binoculars form the flying bridge (platform height = 12m) at survey speeds of 18.5-22 km h-1 (10-12 knots). Transect survey ...  Purpose: Cetacean distribution and abundance in the Bering Sea is poorly described, with even recent reviews of cetaceans' role in the ecosystem reliant on data from the commercial whaling era (e.g. Springer et al., 1999; Springer, McRoy, & Flint, 1996).
