Abstract
The distribution and behaviour of bottlenose dolphins
(Tursiops aduncus) in the Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary (ADS),
South Australia, was investigated in relation to habitat type
and environmental water properties from boat based surveys
between May and August 2006. Although the distribution and
behaviour of bottlenose dolphins were not related to the physicochemical properties of the water column or habitat type,
this study gives a quantitative assessment of the distribution
and behaviour, which is essential when implementing management
strategies.
