Our target is to implement effective conservation strategies, support citizen science, raise ecological awareness and to use research and knowledge to generate these management skills for a healthy marine ecosystems.
We combine our research with public outreach to create holistic conservation campaigns to help protect endangered cetaceans.
OUR RESEARCHES FOCUS
Distribution
We use land and boat based surveys to map the critical habitats of cetaceans.
Behaviour
We research cetacean behaviour and how it is effected by human pressures.
Photo Identification
We collate, maintain and share databases of individually identified dolphins and whales
Human Pressures
We map the location of human pressures on dolphins and record their magnitude.
INTERNSHIPS
Join our team of researchers and scientists along the Adriatic coasts of Montenegro and Albania or in the Levantine and Agean Seas around Turkey. This is a valuable opportunity for graduates and undergraduates in order to gain experience in the marine mammal research field.
Experience:
- Land and boat based surveys
- Collect distribution and behavioral data
- Collect and match individuals using photo ID software
- Data entry and analysis
- Raise stakeholder awarenes
