Abstract: Detection of many threatened aquatic mammals, such as manatees (Trichechus spp.), using traditional visual observation methods is associated with high uncertainty due to their low surfacing times, cryptic behaviors, and the environmental heterogeneity of their habitats. Rapid advancements in technology provide an opportunity to address these challenges. In this study, we aimed to quantify survey effort of unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs) for detecting the Vulnerable Amazonian manatee (T. inunguis). Using a cl… Show more
