Localisation of sperm whales using bottom-mounted sensors. (In special issue: Detection and localization of marine mammals using passive acoustics)

This paper describes the results of applying acoustic localisation methods to data from a free ranging sperm whale (Phyester macrocephalus) recorded using an array of five bottom-mounted hydrophones. The data analysed were supplied as part of the 2nd International Workshop on Detection and Localisat...
