Resumo(s)
A cetacean survey campaign was performed around São Miguel Island (Azores) by Anacaona Sailing boat (GREC) from July 13th to August 24th of 2013. The team conducted a total of 22 days of effort around the island. A total of 8 species was sighted during the survey: common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), atlantic spotted dolphin (Stenella frontalis), bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops trucnatus), stripped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba), risso’s dolphin (Grampus griseus), sperm whale (Physter macrocephalus), sei whale (Balaenoptera borealis) and beaked whales (Mesoplodon sp.). The common dolphin together with the atlantic spotted dolphin were the most sighted species. Some differences in the distribution between the species can be appreciated in the corrected effort maps. Acoustic data is currently under study.
