Author
Advisory Group of the Conservation Committee Working Group on Cetacean and Ecosystem Functioning
Authors Summary
The Advisory Group of the Conservation Committee Working Group on Cetacean and Ecosystem Functioning has been working since January 2023 to advance on the development of a tender for a pilot project to assess the socio-economic values of a single (or set of) species or populations of cetaceans. This includes the selection of species to be assessed and the development of Terms of Reference for a consultancy. Most likely candidate species include the North Pacific humpback whale, the Southern Ocean species (humpback, blue, fin and minke whale) and/or the Southwest Atlantic southern right whales. The advice/endorsement of the Scientific Committee on species selection as well as any other relevant advice on ecosystem function modelling considered here is requested.
