Ricardo Antunes (my personal friend and cetology guru) and me are implementing a project in the Azores named PICA (Projecto de Investigação para o Cachalote dos Açores) that in Portuguese means Research Program for the Sperm whale of the Azores. It is focused on the temporal and geographic variation of sperm whale acoustic clans and well as behaviour.
We will conduct a set of practical courses in acoustics & ethology during the next month of September (2005).
The date for the practical courses will be:
01-15 September 2005
16-30 September 2005
Courses will be held in English.
Practical course – max. 4 participants (per course).
Details on the courses and other information can be requested through the e-mail: physeter_m@yahoo.com
A website and more information will be soon available — watch this space!
