Identifying High Stranding Risk Areas of the Yangtze Finless Porpoise via Remote Sensing and Hydrodynamic Modeling

Freshwater cetaceans that inhabit river basins with seasonally changing hydrological regimes have a higher risk of stranding, leading to increased mortality and population decline. In Poyang Lake, the stranding risk of the critically endangered Yangtze finless porpoise are high, due to the significa...
