Harbour porpoise surveys in Blasket Islands SAC, 2022

To contribute to the Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage (DHLGH) site management and surveillance effort, visual monitoring of harbour porpoises was carried out in the Blasket Islands SAC during the summer of 2022. This was the fifth dedicated line transect survey of harbour porpoises within this SAC, which will enable ongoing trends in summer density estimates to be explored.
