LOCAL TO BASIN SCALE ARRAYS FOR PASSIVE ACOUSTIC MONITORING IN THE ATLANTIC SECTOR OF THE SOUTHERN OCEAN
Passive acoustic data provide a prime source of information on marine mammal distribution and behaviour. Particularly in the Southern Ocean, where ship-based data collection can be severely hampered by weather and ice conditions, passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) of marine mammals forms an important...
