Due to their worldwide distribution and occupancy of different types environments, bottlenose dolphins display considerable morphological variation. Despite limited understanding about the taxonomic identity such forms connectivity among them at global scale, coastal (or inshore) offshore oceanic) ecotypes have been widely recognized in several ocean regions. In Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWA), however, there are scarce records differing external morphology according habitat preferences that...
The franciscana dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) is the most threatened small cetacean in southwestern Atlantic Ocean. Its incidental capture Uruguayan fisheries of oceanic coast (AOC) has been recorded since 1940 and was systematically studied from 1974 to 1994, providing recent by-catch per unit effort estimate (BPUE) for AOC region (0.0064 franciscanas 1000m net fishing set). lack new data during past 12 years led a gap estimates species Uruguay. current study developed two separate...
The study reviews the information available on distribution patterns of bottlenose dolphins within SWAO (04oN-56oS, 25oW-67oW) including northern portion Brazil, covering period from 1894 to 2011.
The review compiles available information about the habitat use patterns of bottlenose dolphins within SWAO, including temporal analysis survey effort allocation, and spatial indicating areas resident or seasonally populations.
This report compiles the current information on morphology, genetics, stable isotopes, acoustics and parasites of bottlenose dolphins along Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), which includes waters Brazil, Uruguay Argentina. The authors also briefly review proposed taxonomy for genus coast South America.
In this work we compiled the available information about humans and bottlenose dolphin interactions in Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), including issues as historical direct takes, incidental captures fisheries, positive with of dolphins tourism boat traffic, habitat modification or degradation, environmental pollution. The data review demonstrated that coastal are under anthropogenic pressure SWAO. Direct take wild does not appear to be an issue conservation concern Although species is...
We review information on the biology and ecology of common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) in Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) with emphasis growth, feeding ecology, epizootics parasites, predation pathologies.
The common bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus is often observed throughout the oceanic coast of Uruguay. Historically, its distribution was wider, including estuary Río de la Plata, but currently occurrence seems to be restricted mainly Uruguayan Atlantic (Rocha Department). Conflicting interests and tradeoffs between conservation development are being generated in On one hand, establishment protected areas, responsible tourism sustainable fisheries promoted, while on other foreign...
The information herein presented were compiled from six scientific articles, one undergraduate monographs, four master and three doctoral thesis working papers during the “I South American Meeting of Research Conservation Tursiops truncatus”, which was held in Rio Grande, Grande do Sul, Brazil between May 21-23, 2010. Some personal communications complement information. Each topic discussed present report followed geographical sub-divisions established Report Working Group on Distribution...

LAJAM Special Volume on Tursiops in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean is introduced.
In this report, we present a compilation of the behavioral patterns bottlenose dolphins and social structure throughout Southwest Atlantic Ocean. We have compiled summarized available data concerning: (i) activities (states events), (ii) structures (group size composition), (iii) acoustic behavior (iv) intra interspecific interactions dolphin populations SWAO, from northern Brazil to southern Argentina. Lack systematic standardized methodologies for collection precludes robust analyses in...
This article shows the results of a research which target was to identify influence factors on student disassociation Initial Optative Cycles setting, an educational Higher Education innovation, that pursuits curricular flexibility and democratize access Universidad de la República, Uruguay. Timing reasons for uncoupling were inquired; survival used Kaplan-Meier's method.The outcomes reveal happens, predominantly, during first three months courses initiation its related institutional program...
RESUMENLa Universidad de la República (UR) Uruguay ha comenzado un proceso descentralización y cambios muy profundos.En este marco se crean los Ciclos Iniciales Optativos (CIO), una vía alternativa ingreso a universidad, que tienen como objetivo facilitar el acceso educación terciaria evitar desvinculación.Este artículo describe implementación valoración CIO en
On 24 May 2003, a fresh dead specimen of Andrew's beaked whale was found stranded at La Coronilla beach (33°54'50"S, 53°30'15"W), Department Rocha, Uruguay. Morphological and osteological characters were used to identify the genetic analyses confirmed species identification. Although basic body morphology consistent with published descriptions, Uruguayan exhibited subadult characteristics, in spite its total length (430cm), typical an adult male. The color pattern differed from previously...
Abstract We report the first record of Ramari's beaked whale ( Mesoplodon eueu ) from temperate Southwestern Atlantic. Our analysis is based on an adult female and a plausibly associated calf/juvenile that stranded coast Canelones Department, Uruguay. The species two individuals was identified via combination morphometric molecular mitochondrial data provide new insights into whale, including previously unknown polymorphisms in genome re-estimated date divergence mirus at 2.5902 Mya.
Abstract The study of resource partitioning within a community is central to understanding the processes that enable interspecific competition and coexistence. This aimed understand habitat preferences among odontocetes in Uruguay. We analyzed stable carbon nitrogen isotopes data from bone tissue common dolphins ( Delphinus delphis ), Fraser's Lagenodelphis hosei false killer whales Pseudorca crassidens Lahille's bottlenose Tursiops truncatus gephyreus Burmeister's porpoises Phocoena...
Ethnobiological studies and educational projects related to bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus, Montagu, 1821) are still incipient in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO). We review conducted region, especially Brazil, where more information is available. Proposals implement ethnobiology environmental education relation species also presented.
The Republic University of Uruguay (UR) has begun a process decentralization and deep changes. In this framework the Optional Initial Cycles (CIO, for Spanish acronym) are created as an alternative route entry into university, which aim to facilitate access decrease student desertion. This article describes implementation evaluation CIO in context university creation Eastern Regional Centre. CIO’s main characteristics innovative program curriculum flexibility integration knowledge through...
