Acoustic classification of echolocation clicks of three killer whale ecotypes in the Northeastern Pacific
Echolocation click features are compared for three different killer whale ecotypes in the Northeast Pacific off the coast of Washington. A dataset consisting of manually labeled killer whale encounters identified to ecotype based on pulsed call matching was used to generate echolocation click archet...
