This study maps spatial and temporal overlaps between common dolphin sightings and fishing activity along Portugal's north coast using AIS data and environmental variables.

This study redefines and quantifies close encounters (CEs) between vessels and whales in the Eastern North Atlantic using Time to Potential Collision (TPC) as a dynamic metric, finding that TPC is influenced by species, vessel type, weather, and observer experience.

This study uses environmental DNA to characterize cetacean communities and their prey in coastal waters, finding similar results to visual surveys and identifying year-round presence.
