DCP and Kathleen's research at Mikura Island, Japan, has a primary focus, with a secondary aspect. The focus concerns dolphin signal exchange and use of contact behaviors between individuals- their communication patterns. We are interested in dolphin social behavior and communication. The comparative aspect is between Kathleen's ongoing work on Atlantic spotted dolphins in the Bahamas and that on the bottlenose dolphins around Mikura Island.
This year, 2006, Justin Gregg will be returning to the people, culture and of course the dolphins of Mikura Island. Kathleen will be joining him at the end of the field season. Kathleen introduced Justin to the Island and the people at the beginning of the 2005 field season, before leaving him on his own to manage the rest of the field season. Kathleen returned to the US for her first summer spent at home in 15 years! To read more background information click here.
