| Dr Jaramillo-Legorreta, Armando Martin |
| Dr. Armando Jaramillo has a Master and Doctoral degrees in coastal oceanography by the Autonomous University of Baja California, Mexico. He has over 20 years of experience researching several aspects of marine mammal’s ecology. Its research experience includes the study of population dynamics through modeling, since abundance estimates using mark-recapture and distance sampling models, to fitting of population models using traditional and Bayesian methods.
For 13 years, Dr. Jaramillo has been studying the ecology and population trends of vaquita, using as part of field methods passive acoustic techniques to detect groups. In fact a ten years series of these data were the basis to estimate the negative population trend underwent by vaquita population recently that triggered the vaquita conservation action plans by the Mexican Government. | |
