In celebration of the 50th year anniversary of the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere programme, three neighbouring Biosphere Reserves, the Dublin Bay Biosphere Reserve, The Kerry Biosphere Reserve and the Isle of Man Biosphere Reserve, have come together to co-host a yearlong webinar programme celebrating the natural and built heritage and culture of these extraordinary places.
The Dublin Bay Biosphere - in partnership with the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group - recently held a very special webinar that looked to explore the current knowledge and ecology of marine mammals from seals, to porpoises, dolphins and whales in Dublin Bay and adjacent waters.
With presentations from Simon Berrows (IWDG Director), Sibeal Regan(IWDG education Officer) and Fiona Cummins (PhD Researcher) working on. We also heard about marine mammals around the Isle of Man Byrony Manley who works with the Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch.
The webinar was recorded and the video can be watched below:
