Brazil flats

 

Save time and money.

New - Brazil flats

They were built with boiled whale blubber in the 1600s and 1700s used to affix the mollusk shells to the sand. A large variety of birds are present, such as brown boobies, frigates, blackcormorants, kelp gulls, terns, toucans, kingfishers, herons and hummingbirds. If dead animals are found, volunteers will also help prepare the specimens for scientific and educational purposes. If they are injured, they should be carried to an adequate rehabilitation centre and not the dependencies of the state park.

We offer manaus tours, industry leading Brazil flats solutions, floripa tours information, and Brazil flats tips. See Rio de Janeiro flats.

Staff will take volunteers from the house to the office or to the marinawhere the boat is launched whenever needed. Brthe main objectives of this project are to collect data on the ecology of the marine tucuxi dolphin (sotalia fluviatilis) population at the canan�ia estuary, southeastern brazil, as well as to recover as much biological information as possible from all stranded specimens.

The only line that is set very clearly is that of respect for the research staff and fellowcrew members. Paulo flores, a 36 year-old biologist who has been conducting tucuxi studies in florian�polis, santa catarina, brazil and alexandre azevedo, a 32 year-old biologist who has been studying ecological aspects of tucuxis in ba�a da guanabara, rio de janeiro, brazil. Work will be on average 3 days on boat, 1 day off (subject to weather). Boat-based observations will also be regarded to bioacoustics.

In brazilian waters, they areprotected by a federal law (1743). They also will help inmeasuring and recording environmental variables (wind speed and direction, water temperature,water depth, bottom sediment, water transparency). Research areailha do cardoso is located in the southern portion of s�o paulo state. Sections including research purposes, results gathered by each team, field work photographs, names and photographs of volunteers engaged in field work (if they allow), photographs of the earthwatch conference in boston, the aims of the earthwatch and a link to the earthwatch website.

Two types ofsurveys are conducted, always without following a regular course: (A) focal-group sampling,when the same animals are observed and photographed until the end of the survey and (b)"random surveys," when the group is left once it is concluded that most individuals werephotographed and the survey is resumed.
