About this contract

Reporting on the status of cetacean populations, the threats and pressures which impact on them and implementation of management measures, are a statutory requirement for the UK to meet its national and international commitments. However, for marine mammal species these assessment processes can be challenging due to a limited evidence base. The aim of this project is to stake stock of recent progress in identifying cetacean data flow pathways and standards for cetacean data, how different types of data or outputs can be compiled to create a more holistic picture for species assessments, identify additional opportunities progress made towards improving the access to and use of existing data relating to cetaceans in the UK. To achieve this, the project will produce; • A complete overview of existing marine mammal data in the UK • A summary of data flow pathways and data standards relevant to cetacean data • A matrix of methods to bring different types of data or outputs together for species assessments • Recommendations and priorities for improvements to data flow, standardisation and mobilisation of existing data to inform assessments.
