Land and passive acoustic monitoring of Kep dolphins

What is available

The full article is available here, with a reviewed summary and original methods. Detailed event-level extraction may remain incomplete.

Findings and interpretation

• The study compares shore-based observations and passive acoustic detection in Kep during August 2018–June 2019, using matched periods across 22 days.
• Detection differed between methods; combining approaches can improve monitoring. The recorder position is not a dolphin encounter location. Abstract pp.51–52; analysis p.55.

How to read this evidence

Observation effort and C-POD detections

Acoustic detections show dolphin activity during recorder deployments, not the number of individual dolphins.
