Information about estimated start data of entanglement events

Description

A dataset generated by Amy Knowlton of the New England Aquarium as part of the PCAD/PCOD project looking at health and the impacts of disturbance on vital rates in North Atlantic right whales. These data are used to establish the start of "windows" that denote when animals are entangled and in turn to intersect those windows with estimates of health.

Usage

estStartDates

Format

a data frame containing 130 rows and 6 variables:

EntanglementId

A unique identifier for the entanglement event in the NEAq DIGITS database

EGNo

4 number code that identifies individual right whales

EventNo

Integer labelling the consecutive number of each entanglement event

StartDate

A character variable describing the estimated first date of the entanglement event

EndDate

A character variable describing the observed last date of the entanglement event

EntanglementComment

Comments from Amy Knowlton about the entanglement events
