調査研究－科学論文リスト

JARPN/JARPNII
IWC科学委員会及びその他国際機関の科学会議に提出された科学論文

List of scientific papers based on data and samples collected by JARPN and JARPN II.

Note: L-J= document or publication based on lethal sampling by Japanese scientists; L-F= lethal, foreign scientist; NL-J= non-lethal, Japanese scientist; L,NLJ= lethal and non-lethal, Japanese scientist.

Documents or peer-reviewed publications having as a first author a foreign scientist commonly followed a data request or collaboration research agreement with ICR. In a few cases foreign scientists have used published data from JARPA or JARPA II in their analyses and papers, without a formal agreement with ICR. These cases are indicated by a symbol (&).

References for documents presented to the IWC Scientific Committee follow the format/style determined by the Scientific Committee. All these documents are available from the IWC Secretariat upon request. Recent documents are also available at the IWC website (http://iwc.int/sc-documents).
