Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory The songs would be varied slightly between each breeding season, with a few new phrases added on and a few others dropped. The concentrations determined can be used as a baseline against which to compare future measurements similar to the ones we made, making it possible in future to determine not just the concentrations of ocean contaminants but the rate at which they are increasing. 1977 Member, conference sponsored by the Marine Mammal Commission on Harassment of Whales, Honolulu, Hawaii Cooke, and K.
