Abstract | | | | The waters of Glacier Bay National Monument, Alaska, appear to be | | an important humpback whale (_Megaptera novaeangliae_) summering | | area. In 1979, fewer whales used Glacier Bay than expected, based | | on previous observations. This report, of an Interagency Review | | Meeting held in Seattle, Washington, on 12-13 October 1979, | | discusses management and research activities relating to humpback | | whales in Glacier Bay National Monument and surrounding waters. | | | +----------------------------------------+----------------------------+ |17.
