14 December 2009 - The 16th Meeting of the Advisory Committee recommended that a review of trend analyses of stranding and other data of small cetaceans in the ASCOBANS area be carried out. The aim is to provide AC members with an accessible, readable and succinct overview of trends in status, distribution and impacts of small cetaceans within the ASCOBANS Agreement Area. This should combine data sets of different stakeholders and countries.

Applicants are requested to make an offer to the Secretariat by 27 December 2009. Please refer to the Terms of Reference for details.
