Projects, Research & Reports
Sea Trust is currently running two main marine conservation projects: Môr Mammals, where images of individual cetaceans, including Harbour porpoises, Risso’s dolphins and Grey seals, are used to study their population and ecology, training teams of volunteers to become citizen scientists and record marine wildlife around the Pembrokeshire coast as well as raising awareness around the community about the wildlife they have on their doorstep; and Recycle Môr, which recycles end of the line fishing gear into useful everyday products. We also have our Education & Outreach work, currently encompassed under the Dysgu Môr project. Find out more about our Education & Outreach.

How does the spatial and temporal distribution of harbour porpoise, based on Sea Trust Wales’s photo ID data, correlate with patterns of underwater noise pollution from human activities in Welsh waters, as recorded by the UK Marine Noise Registry?

In 2017 we hosted Sophia Ellis from Swansea University. We’re happy to say she received a 1st for her project.
