| When
did the "turnaround" (the time when northbound
whales outnumber southbound whales) begin this year off
the coast
of Los
Angeles (Post #6), according to the
latest
data?
|
| The
turnaround in 2009 was Feb. 7. In 2008
it was Feb. 16. What reasons might explain
why turnaround dates are
different
(and/or
similar) from year to year? |
| On
how many days did zero sightings occur at the
California Counting sites (#6 and #7) in this data
reporting period? What reasons might explain
no sightings?
|
|
What
do you predict will happen next, and why?
