Baltic Sea Harbour Porpoise Foraging Habitats (BALHAB)

Examine whether porpoise feeding buzzes can be used to identify foraging habitats by comparing occurrence of buzzes at a number of the different sampling stations (304 stations).

2. Investigate the temporal distribution of harbour porpoise foraging buzzes in the SAMBAH data.

3. Produce seasonal maps of the frequency of occurrence of foraging buzzes within the SAMBAH project area to propose foraging habitats especially important for porpoises.
