Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) data were collected by recorder SV1008 of type Sono.Vault (manufactured by develogic GmbH, Hamburg, Germany) at 20.9633 ° S, 5.9767 ° E, mooring AWI247-2, in the eastern Atlantic Ocean off Namibia. During a deployment period from November 2011 to November 2012, passive acoustic data were collected from November 2011 to August 2012 (recording period) by SV1008 off Namibia. The recorder was moored at 741 m depth and scheduled to record continuously at a sample rate of 5,333 Hz. Further details about the data acquisition and processing of this data set can be found in the accompanying metadata file (see Additional metadata) as well as the data processing report (see Data Processing Report). Passive acoustic data archived here represent data processing Level 2+ (see the associated data processing report), deviating from Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) Glossary (Thomisch et al. 2023a). Further information on data processing with regard to data preparation and standardization can be found in the associated SOP Part 1: Data preparation and standardization (Thomisch et al. 2023b).
