These data were systematically collected during surveys having various objectives (small cetaceans, humpback whales). It includes 18 species, including the dugong, the humpback whale, beaked whales (2 species), sperm whales (3 species) and 11 delphinids.Kiszka, J2009https://doi.org/10.82144/c06489dbOBIS-SEAMAP463http://seamap.env.duke.edu/dataset/463OBIS-SEAMAPVersion 1.0.0ground condition2004-07-312006-06-23CompleteNone planned44.898878545.3495089-12.518143-13.118570744.898878545.3495089-12.518143-13.1185707PlatformVesselsSightingsOpen public unless otherwise noted.
