The data are measurements relating to the acoustic properties of Weddell seal underwater Trill vocalisations. The measures include a broad classification of the waveform (sinusoidal, frequency modulated or pulsed)at the start and end of the Trill, the duration (milliseconds) and the frequency (Hz) a...
