Summary

The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society conducted a survey to aid in the identification of cirtical cetacean habitats, to aid in the MPA selection process. Areas were identified by use of a scoring system which included concentration of animals, evidence of the area being used for improtant life processes (e.g. feeding, breeding) and the confidence of the quality and quantity of the available data. Full details can be found in the report: Clark et al. (2010) Towards Marine protected Areas for Cetaceans in Scotland, England and Wales, WDCS Scotland.
