Abstract

Whale-watching research encompasses a wide variety of disciplines and fields of study including monitoring the biological impacts of whale-watching activities on cetaceans and assessments of the effectiveness of whale-watching management and regulations, to the sociological and economic aspects of whale watching on communities hosting such activities. This article is the latest of a series of annual digests that describes the variety and findings of whale-watching studies published in the year following the 57th meeting of the International Whaling Commission, in 2005.
