The goal of this study was to evaluate for a potential geographic shift in the sighting and acoustic detection rates of oceanic dolphins and sperm whales across six surveys in the Gulf (2003 through 2018), combined as before and after the DWH Oil Spill. The information here was presented in the form of a poster presentation.
