Using Ostrom's common-pool resource theory to build toward an integrated ecosystem-based sustainable cetacean tourism system in Hawai`i

TL;DR: In this paper, the suitability of community-based conservation measures to complement a proposed command-and-control approach for two multi-user bays with spinner dolphins in Hawai`i, USA, which have considerable dolphin watching tourist activities and human-dolphin interactions was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic exposure of Hawaii Island spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) to human activities

TL;DR: This paper quantified the cumulative human exposure of a small, genetically isolated and behaviourally constrained spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris) population, off Hawaii Island, and exposure effects on their daytime cumulative activity budget.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of human activity on Hawaiian spinner dolphins in their resting bays

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the effect of human activity on spinner dolphin acoustic behavior should be explored in future studies, and the results have implications for designing future studies as well as for ongoing efforts to protect Hawaiian spinner dolphins in their resting bays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Passive acoustic monitoring of coastally associated Hawaiian spinner dolphins, Stenella longirostris, ground-truthed through visual surveys.

TL;DR: Given the need to monitor dolphin presence across sites, PAM is the most suitable and efficient tool for monitoring long-term presence/absence andConcomitant photo-identification surveys are necessary to address changes in abundance over time.
