Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce the publication of Taylor, R. L. and M. S. Udevitz. Demography of the Pacific walrus (*Odobenus rosmarus divergens*): 1974-2006. Marine Mammal Science DOI: 10.1111/mms.12156. This study provides the first rigorous estimates of Pacific walrus survival rates, in addition to updating decades old estimates of reproductive rates and population growth rates. We obtained these results by developing a hidden process Bayesian model that described demographic processes from 1974-2006, and combined information from five population size estimates, six standing age structure estimates, one estimate each of high and low reproductive rates, and annual age-specific harvest records. The article can be accessed via http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/enhanced/doi/10.1111/mms.12156/ or by requesting an electronic reprint from me at rebeccataylor@usgs.gov.
