Free workshop to build army of skilled ‘dolphin spotters’ for the Sunshine Coast
Marine life enthusiasts can learn how to collect data any time they spot a dolphin from headlands, on a boat or simply walking on the beach, at a free one-day training workshop in Noosa Heads on Saturday 29 March.
"This is an ideal opportunity for anyone who has always wanted to be a citizen scientist or is interested in finding out more about becoming a marine biologist or dolphin researcher," said UniSC marine biologist Dr Alexis Levengood."With such a large region to cover, it's difficult for researchers to gather the vast amount of data we need on threatened, charismatic megafauna in our ocean without the help of citizen scientists," Dr Levengood said.
