Acknowledgments 



This study could not have been completed without all 

 the help from MLML students and Bird and Mammal 

 Laboratory interns. We thank Tomoharu Eguchi, Tony 

 Orr, Tony Alisea, Laird Henkel, Stori Oates, Jeff Field, 

 Joe Bizarro, Julie Neer, Scott Benson, Denise Greig, 

 Sarah Wilkin, Anu Kumar, Aviva Barsky, Meisha Key, 

 Sean Lema, Lydia Neilson, Guido Parra, Mimi Reyes, 

 Greg Cunningham, Sharon Updike, Michelle Garcia, 

 Inger-Marie Laursen, Cina Loarie, Judd Weiss, Kate 

 Willis, and Wendy Cover for the countless hours spent 

 undertaking dockside and onboard surveys. Scott Davis 

 was instrumental in aerial photography for aerial sur- 

 veys. We extend special thanks to the commercial, char- 

 ter boat, and personal skiff fishermen, deckhands, and 

 captains for their cooperation; this research would not 

 have been possible without their help. This project was 

 supported by funding from the Fishermen's Alliance of 

 California, Monterey Bay Chapter, The David and Lucille 

 Packard Foundation, and the National Marine Fisheries 

 Service. We are grateful for constructive comments by 

 Gregor Cailliet, Robert DeLong, and two anonymous 

 reviewers.
