This paper develops a spatiotemporal model to integrate dedicated and opportunistic surveys for estimating seasonal common dolphin density off Portugal, providing animal-level density estimates with uncertainty.

This paper integrates structured and opportunistic species distribution data using a spatiotemporal model to improve predictions for mobile species.

This study models common dolphin densities in Portuguese waters using environmental factors, showing seasonal patterns and interannual variation linked to sardine biomass and oceanographic conditions.
