Description
Summary:Ambient sound was measured in Storfjorden, Svalbardatfrequenciesfrom30 to 24000Hz at a depth of around 20 meters.The measurements were carried out in open sea at depths of about 100 metres or more.The measurements were carried out using a drifting small boat, where the engine was turned off.Thereafter, asecond small boat was used for transmitting pings at 11 kHztowards the first small boatatdifferent depths and ranges.The experiment was carried outin June 2020by Master studentsunder supervision, as part of a research school in the Barents Sea with K/V Svalbard, organized under the UAK project lead by the Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Centre.
