Application of GIS Spatial\/Temporal prediction Model for Marine Mammal Scientists and Management Toshihide \u201cHamachan\u201d Hamazaki (Alaska Department of Fish and Game, USA)<\/p>\n There is a growing interest in the development of spatial\/temporal model of marine mammal distribution.\u00a0 It is hoped that spatial\/temporal models will be used to predict potential and critical habitats\/locations of marine mammals, which will greatly improve marine mammal management and conservation, such application as: designation of marine reserve, ship collision warning zone, bycatch reduction fishing exclusion zone, population monitoring.<\/p>\n This workshop explores current development of spatial\/temporal models.\u00a0 The topics covered in this workshop are:<\/p>\n 1) Varieties of modeling approaches: Theoretical\/methodological foundations, modeling capabilities, advantages and disadvantages of the model<\/p>\n 2) Application of current and new technologies<\/p>\n 3) Case studies on application of models to marine mammal conservation and management: Successful applications, and unsuccessful applications \/ lessons to be learned.<\/p>\n 4) Discussions on future direction: Interactions and exchanges among participants<\/p>\n And this year\u2019s workshop special: True to the spirit of workshop.<\/p>\n 5) Call for experts: Present project\/research\/management plans and receive experts\u2019 suggestions.<\/p>\n This workshop would provide a great opportunity for those who are interested in GIS spatial\/temporal modeling, learning about modeling, and making connections.<\/p>\n Workshop Schedule 9:00 to 9:30\u00a0 Greetings and outline of day.<\/p>\n Toshihide Hamazaki Caterina D\u2019Agrosa1<\/sup>, P.N.
