Description
Summary:By using a remotely controlled autonomous vehicle ("Blackbeard" the Acoustic Wave Glider), the authors made recordings of sounds produced by striped cusk eels, sea robins, oyster toadfish, weakfish, red drum, spotted seatrout, bottlenose dolphins, and humpback whales in Onslow Bay, North Carolina. The article describes the wave glider, the sound recording system used on the wave glider, and presents data recorded along the track followed by the glider mission in August 2017.
