Iona artist Mhairi Killin meets Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust director Alison Lomax and Jenny Hampson of HWDT to discuss the amazing ecology of the seas around the west coast of Scotland, and how the work of the Trust, in collaboration with the public, has created 20 years of data on cetacean behaviour in these waters. The conversation will cover all aspects of the Trust's work, how it feeds into Government policy, and how you can get involved in their conservation programme. Hear about their citizen science research trips on board the survey vessel, Silurian; the Whale Track App; the award winning Whale Trail project, and the HWDT research into the impact of the NATO exercise, Joint Warrior, which takes place twice a year in the seas around the Hebrides, on cetacean behaviour.
