Sampling Methods
The data mining process was conducted manually using Google search and in-website search tools, using different search terms that represent the cetacean and stranding phenomenon. Searchings were conducted in Vietnamese.
| Study Extent | All cetacean stranding cases reported in media (newspapers, online news, social media such as Facebook and Youtube) in Vietnam were documented. |
|---|---|
| Quality Control | Searching was performed 02 times to minimise missing information. Each case was manually examined and compared with previously recorded cases to minimise duplicates. |
Method step description:
- Step 1: different search terms that represent the cetacean and stranding phenomenon were constructed in the Vietnamese language Step 2: all search terms were input into Google and three major social media platforms in Vietnam (Facebook, Youtube and Zalo). Step 3: all returned results were examined and verified Step 4: unique and confirmed cases of cetacean stranding were documented Step 5: data from each cases were extracted from original media
