The NAMMCO Scientific Publications series was established to make available in published, peer-reviewed form, scientific knowledge that is important for decision-making on the conservation and management of marine mammals. The NAMMCO Scientific Committee provides scientific advice on marine mammal species and stocks in the North Atlantic in response to requests forwarded to it by the Council of NAMMCO. Most volumes are organised around a theme, which has often been connected to the requests for advice received by the NAMMCO Scientific Committee.
