he will be gathering scientific data on ocean health and marine biodiversity. Most exciting (to us) is that Mark is collaborating with one of our HuDoNet members: Andrew Willson, of Future Seas. A hydrophone will be towed to record the sounds of whales and dolphins.

There were more projects showcased than can be mentioned, yet there are as many, if not more, threats to our cetaceans and everybody agreed that a regional action plan for research-based conservation and mitigation of threats is needed.

Globice’s scientists shared new findings on the diffusion of humpback whale song across 17 different locations in the WIO. Their analysis found an eastward diffusion of songs between years, with a year’s delay, and complex connectivity within years.

These are great examples that highlight the power of collaboration to scale up efforts and produce outcomes greater than the sum of their individual parts.
