This dataset provides information on marine turtles captured during long-term, haphazard surveys of our study site in Shark Bay, Western Australia. Taxon found in the study area include Chelonia mydas, Caretta caretta and Eretmochelys imbricata.
Stranded marine mammals, sea turtles and seabirds in Paraná and Santa Catarina from August 2018 to August 2023
<p><span class="fontstyle0">To assess the potential impacts from oil and gas production in deep waters of Brazil's Santos Basin, the Brazilian environmental agency (IBAMA) required PETROBRAS, the main oil company in the basin, to implement the "Projeto de Monitoramento de Praias da Bacia de Santos" (Santos Basin Beach Monitoring Project - PMP-BS). This project has been operating along the</span> <span class="fontstyle0">states of Santa Catarina, Paraná, São Paulo, and Rio de Janeiro, since August 2015, collecting data from stranded seabirds, turtles, and marine mammals. This dataset includes records from August 2018 to August 2023, along the Paraná and Santa Catarina coastlines. During this period, 58151 animals of at least 93 species were recorded (883 unidentified animals). From this total, 88.6% were dead and 11.4% alive when first observed. This dataset complements previous ones from the same area, and is a high-intensity monitoring effort essential to understand temporal and geographical variation of stranded animals. This data will allow future works aimed at understanding the impacts of human activities on marine ecosystems and environmental changes over time.</span> <br><br></p>
