Data_Sheet_1_Intra-Group Orca Call Rate Modulation Estimation Using Compact Four Hydrophones Array.pdf
Acoustic emissions are vital for orca (Orcinus orca) socializing, hunting, and maintaing spatial awareness. Studying the acoustic emissions of orcas on an individual basis often results in interference with their natural behaviors through mounting tags or following by boat. In order to analyze their...
