Applicability of single-camera photogrammetry to determine body dimensions of pinnipeds: Galapagos sea lions as an example.
Morphological features correlate with many life history traits and are therefore of high interest to behavioral and evolutionary biologists. Photogrammetry provides a useful tool to collect morphological data from species for which measurements are otherwise difficult to obtain. This method reduces...
