Analysis of genetic and demographic data from populations of baleen whales in order to determine (1) the scale of population sub-structuring and population fluctuations over recent evolutionary time (2) recent demographic population histories for exploited populations (humpbacks and southern right whales). Integrating Bayesian demographic population models with genetic data to improve estimates of population recovery for individual whale stocks.
