Dear Marmam Community, In the framework of the up-coming ECS conference (O'Grove, April 18th - 21st) and thanks to the collaboration between the projects LIFE CONCEPTU MARIS and IMPEL EU MTT, Triton Research srl is organizing a networking workshop on the monitoring of cetaceans by ferries/large ships.
The workshop intitle "Crossing the trail of cetaceans: harmonising and improving EU transborder monitoring of cetacean using ferries/large vessels as multidisciplinary research vessels to support the EU Nature Legislative framework" will be held on the April 17th, between 15:00 and 18:30. Large scale, international cooperation is a prerequisite for scientific programmes aiming at supporting the legislative requirements and enhance the conservation of cetacean species. Long term programmes were run in EU waters for the monitoring of cetacean species using operating ferries/cargo as research platform. During recent years, effort was put in place for networking among initiatives, fine tuning methodological approaches, supporting multidisciplinary procedures and advancing the use of new technologies. The workshop will explore all the phases, from protocol to data collection, data analysis, guideline, practicalities, and tools, and aims at advancing awareness on the state of the art of programmes and projects dealing with the interface between science and policy. Starting from the main advancements reached by two wide range projects, the IMPEL EU MTT and the LIFE CONCEPTU MARIS, the WS finally aims at improving the sharing of experiences with other projects and initiatives, delineating new perspectives for large scale international cooperation.
