A finer look into the twilight zone : comparing acoustic records from an animal-borne miniature sonar and a multifrequency echosounder [résumé]
An animal-borne miniature active echo-sounder has been recently deployed on southern ele-phant seals (Mirounga leonina) from the Kerguelen and Argentinian colonies. This high frequency sonar (1.5 MHz) has shown a strong potential in detecting small mid-trophic level targets (zoo-plankton and microne...
