Summary

To assess habitat association of cetaceans in the Moray Firth, survey and habitat data were summarised across a 4 x 4 km grid.
Based upon earlier analyses of data from within the SAC (Bailey & Thompson, 2009), four habitat variables were assessed: depth, sediment type, slope and distance to the coast (Figure 5.6a to d). For depth, slope and distanc...
