- Description
- Notice of intent to negotiate a sole source contract with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) for the National Marine Mammal Laboratory (NMML). Purpose of proposed action is to finalize a joint NMML/WHOI paper on blue whale seasonal occurrence and habitat assessment from satellite data on ocean parameters; analyze didfferences in distributions of variations ion calls from different groups of blue, fin and humpback whales; and describe the tracks of the unique Pacific "52-Hz" whale followed since 1992. The NMML has been working in partnership with WHOI to prepare a draft manuscript describing blue whale seasonal occurrence and associated habitat features based upon remote sensing. In this case, whale occurrence is based solely on call detections from the U.S. Navy's Sound Surveillance system (SOSUS), as part of a seven-year research effort lead by Dr. William Watkins from WHOI. Questions regarding this procurement may be directed to Randall Brown at (206) 526-6226 or fax (206) 526-6025. This is a simplified acquisition with an estimated value of less than $100,000.
