CODA cetacean sightings on primary platform of vessel surveys 2007

Original provider: Sea Mammal Research Unit, University of St. Andrews Dataset credits: Sea Mammal Research Unit, University of St. Andrews Abstract: The Cetacean Offshore Distribution and Abundance in the European Atlantic (CODA) project estimated the abundance and investigated the habitat use of cetacean species in waters beyond the continental shelf and developed a management framework for determining safe bycatch limits for the common dolphin in this area. The results were intended primarily to inform assessments of the conservation status of all cetacean species and to help assess the impact of bycatch of common dolphin.原始提供方：圣安德鲁斯大学海洋哺乳动物研究组（Sea Mammal Research Unit） 数据集贡献方：圣安德鲁斯大学海洋哺乳动物研究组（Sea Mammal Research Unit） 摘要：欧洲大西洋外大陆架水域鲸类远洋分布与丰度（Cetacean Offshore Distribution and Abundance in the European Atlantic, 简称CODA）项目评估了该区域鲸类物种的种群丰度，探究了其栖息地利用特征，并构建了用于确定该区域普通海豚兼捕安全限额的管理框架。该研究成果主要用于为所有鲸类物种的保护状况评估提供依据，同时助力评估普通海豚兼捕行为所带来的影响。
