In addition, the possible existence of individual signature whistles will be investigated. Tucuxis will be followed, observed, and photographedfrom 1 to 9 hours per day. But don't panic! We are going to travel together to canan�ia (270 km southwards) where only 15,000 people live. One of the most interesting areas to conduct marine mammal research in brazil is the southern coast of s�o paulo state.

Land-based observations, using binoculars, will be conducted from 8am to 5pm from two distinct points: One at ilha comprida and the other at ilha do cardoso. The scarcity of data on the coastal tucuxi is at least, inpart, a result of the lack of long-term longitudinal studies of living animals.

We offer florianopolis tours, industry leading vacation homes in Buzios solutions, recife tours information, and vacation homes in Buzios tips. See home rentals in brazil.

Be sure to bringappropriate clothing. Cetaceans other than tucuxis are also poorly known in these coastal waters, and beach surveys will provide new evidence on their presence and biology. On-site briefings will include boat operation and safety at sea, a description of equipment careand handling, the recording of weather conditions, cetaceans' ecology and identification in thefield, aspects of the history and objectives of the project, bird watching, historical and culturalaspects of the region, and conservation issues and policies of the epaa.

At all scientific events, marcos santos made poster and oral presentations, as well as important contacts, which helped him to give a continuum in his cetacean studies in brazil. Its northern limit is the barra de icapara (24�40's), iguape, at s�o paulo state, and its southern limit is the laranjeiras and paranagu� bays (25�25's), paran� state (pr). 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. You can observe them from land and sometime you will be only 1 meter away from them.

Volunteers should be aware that there is virtually noshelter on an inflatable and one is almost completely exposed to the elements, be they sun, windor rain, or a choppy sea state. Click on the "travelinsurance" link, which is located on the right in a box called "healthy travel store" (just underthe visa sign). At least one of the staff members will be with the volunteers at all times assisting with the field work and camp maintenance. Individual/group focal-follow surveys will be conducted to get information on daily movements, group size and composition and behavioural activities.

Use of areathere are several methods by which cetaceans can be studied in their natural environment. I am honored to invite you tojoin our research and conservation work with the marine tucuxi dolphin. Based on the application of five different mark-recapture models for closed populations, the canan�ia population was estimated to range between 156 to 380 individuals (acu�a 2002). Additionally, volunteers may help with the recovery and necropsy of dead strandedspecimens following standard protocols, if an event occurs during a team.

New individuals will be catalogued when distinguishable marks can be noted, always in comparison with the main catalogue.
