Field-based research on the occurrence, distribution, ecology and conservation needs of coastal and inshore dolphins and other marine mammals.
Surveys and monitoring designed to improve baseline information, identify important areas and understand threats affecting marine mammals.
Collaborative work with local communities, Indigenous partners, students and researchers to strengthen local knowledge and research capability.
Coastal dolphins live in environments where human activity, fisheries, habitat change and other pressures can affect small and localised populations. Reliable information on abundance, distribution, ecology and threats is essential for effective conservation decisions.
