Abstract
How much food marine mammals consume requires knowing what they eat, the energetic densities of ingested prey, and how much they need to eat to survive, grow, and reproduce. It also requires knowing the size and age structure of the population, as well as where they feed. Combining these pieces of information yields the biomass of benthic invertebrates, zooplankton, squid, fish, birds, and mammals consumed by different species and populations of marine mammals.
