Marine Mammal Acoustic Tracking from Adapting HARP Technologies

The long-term goal of this project is to track swimming and diving marine mammals using their sounds recorded by fixed autonomous acoustic recorders. These localizations will provide estimated acoustic detection ranges which are needed for population abundance estimations using distance sampling tec...

Description
Summary:The long-term goal of this project is to track swimming and diving marine mammals using their sounds recorded by fixed autonomous acoustic recorders. These localizations will provide estimated acoustic detection ranges which are needed for population abundance estimations using distance sampling techniques (e.g. Buckland et al., 2001).
