Veterinarians and epidemiologists from the National Marine Fisheries Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Wildlife Health Center, along with subject matter experts from the U.S. and abroad, discussed approaches and priorities for monitoring pathogens, toxins, and health parameters that are likely to be influenced by a changing climate. The Commission synthesized information from the workshop into a report and sampling plan, which is now posted on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/Marine-Mammal-Health-Surveillance-Workshop-Report.pdf\">Commission’s website<\/a>. The plan identifies priorities for sample collection and testing that will contribute to systematic health monitoring and surveillance of marine mammals nationwide. The plan will serve as a resource for researchers and organizations to guide health monitoring and surveillance of marine mammals to detect impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-two\" class=\"heading-two\" id=\"marine-mammal-stranding-response-health-surveillance-and-conservation-webinar\">Marine Mammal Stranding Response, Health Surveillance, and Conservation Webinar<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"heading-three\" class=\"heading-three\" id=\"february-8-2023\">February 8, 2023<\/h3>\n<p>The Commission is hosting an informational webinar to provide an overview of the National Marine Mammal Health and Stranding Response Program and review how data from stranding networks enable effective marine mammal health surveillance and inform management and conservation efforts. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmc.gov\/events-meetings-and-workshops\/other-events\/marine-mammal-stranding-response-health-surveillance-conservation-webinar\/\">Visit the event page for details<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-two\" class=\"heading-two\" id=\"federal-agency-approaches-to-reducing-vessel-strike-of-cetaceans\">Federal Agency Approaches to Reducing Vessel Strike of Cetaceans<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"heading-three\" class=\"heading-three\" id=\"april-12-2022\">April 12, 2022<\/h3>\n<p>The Commission and Committee of Scientific Advisors met to consider actions for reducing vessel strike of large cetaceans.

Bottlenose dolphins in Mississippi and throughout the Northern Gulf were significantly impacted by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and tracking recovery requires long-term monitoring and an ability to identify and minimize ongoing threats. Workshop participants from the National Marine Fisheries Service, Mississippi-based marine mammal research and stranding network facilities, and Mississippi state agencies discussed current capabilities and research activities within the state and current knowledge regarding the status, stock structure, and major threats to bottlenose dolphins in Mississippi state waters. Discussions focused on critical uncertainties and opportunities for enhancing collaborations and expanding partnerships within the state and beyond to advance conservation efforts.
