Figure B-1. Predicted yearly and averaged densities (animals per km 2 ) based on the final ETP<br />

models for: (a) offshore spotted dolphin (Stenella attenuata), (b) eastern spinner dolphin<br />

(Stenella longirostris orientalis), (c) whitebelly spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris<br />

longirostris), (d) striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba), (e) rough-toothed dolphin (Steno<br />

bredanensis), (f) short-beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), (g) bottlenose dolphin<br />

(Tursiops truncatus), (h) Risso’s dolphin (Grampus griseus), (i) Cuvier’s beaked whale (Ziphius<br />

cavirostris), (j) blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus), (k) Bryde’s whale (Balaenoptera edeni), (l)<br />

short-finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus), (m) dwarf sperm whale (Kogia sima),<br />

(n) Mesoplodon beaked whales (including Mesoplodon spp., Mesoplodon densirostris, and<br />

Mesoplodon peruvianus), and (o) small beaked whales (Mesoplodon beaked whales plus<br />

“unidentified beaked whale”). Offshore spotted dolphins were not distinguished from coastal<br />

spotted dolphins in the early surveys (1986-1990), so yearly density plots are shown for 1998-<br />

2006 only (see text for details). Predicted values were smoothed using inverse distance<br />

weighting (see Section 3.5.1 for details). Black dots show actual sighting locations.<br />
