The Small Cetaceans in European Atlantic waters and the North Sea surveys (SCANS) are regionally coordinated synoptic surveys that started almost 30 years ago with the aim of monitoring whales, dolphins and porpoises on the shelf and offshore waters of the European Atla

SCANS surveys are conducted in summer, with the objective of ensuring optimal surveying conditions; there is limited understanding of species distribution and abundance in other seasons (but see Gilles et al. 2016).

La planification spatiale des activités marines (pêche, implantation des parcs éoliens offshore, aires marines protégées) nécessite une connaissance précise des zones fonctionnelles halieutiques (e.g. zones de reproduction, de nourricerie, d’alimentation).

La campagne européenne SCANS IV (Small Cetaceans in European Atlantic waters and the North Sea) a été mise en œuvre afin de mieux comprendre et suivre l’état des populations de cétacés en évaluant leur abondance et leur distribution estivale dans les eaux atlant
