Working to Protect Dolphins
|
|
All of the Institute's research programs can be considered "management based". They are geared towards finding out more information to assist in the management of the dolphin population, to ensure that they continue to thrive in Port Phillip Bay and around our Victorian coastline for future generations to enjoy.
Our long-term population studies monitor fluctuations in dolphin numbers both in time and space, and also help us to identify areas of importance to the dolphins. We also monitor potential human impacts on both dolphins and the marine environment, and, where possible, design studies to measure the extent of these impacts.
