Title: Biopsy Samples- American Samoa EEZ
Status: In Work
Abstract:

Biopsy samples have been collected from cetaceans within the American Samoa EEZ since 2006.
Purpose:

Biological sample collection is an essential tool for determining populations structure and ecology. Skin samples are used to elucidate genetic stock structure. Analysis of skin and blubber for contaminants and stable isotopes provide additional information on stock structure. In addition, stable isotope and fatty acid composition provides information about trophic relationships.
