The Cape fur seal : monitoring and management in the Benguela Current ecosystem

At the root of this thesis was the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) Programme’s project "Top Predators as Biological Indicators of Ecosystem Change in the BCLME" (LMR/EAF/03/02). The objectives of this project were to assess the utility of top predators as biological indicators of ecosystem change in the Benguela Current Ecosystem, and implement an appropriate, integrated, system-wide monitoring programme based on top predators, to support ecosystem-based management in the Benguela Current Ecosystem.
