Antartic blue whale localization with ocean bottom seismometers in southern indian ocean
International audience While visual survey of whales requires substantial means for limited areas, passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) offers larger scale coverage for long periods and less costs. It usually provides information about species behavior, e.g. seasonal movements, but tools are needed to...

International audience While visual survey of whales requires substantial means for limited areas, passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) offers larger scale coverage for long periods and less costs. It usually provides information about species behavior, e.g. seasonal movements, but tools are needed to detail the individuals' behavior. From October 2012 to November 2013 as part of the German-French "RHUM-RUM" (Réunion Hotspot and Upper Mantle - Réunion Unterer Mantel) seismic experiment, a 70km by 40km array of 8 Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS) was deployed in Southern Indian Ocean in a mountainous area, with depths from 2500 to 5500 meters. The [0-50] Hz-frequency band covered by the OBS's hydrophone provides observations about whales. Each source-OBS path has its own acoustic propagation. Indeed, closest OBS can be reached by direct rays, while remote OBS can only be reached by multi-reflected rays. Therefore, the localization problem cannot be solved directly using a classical Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) algorithm. In this work, the TDOA problem is solved in the case of long range detection, even with mountainous relief, enabling localization and tracking of whales. For each point of the spatial matrix representing the area, Times Of Arrival (TOA) of signal on the OBS are computed with a ray tracing algorithm (BELLHOP), taking into account the bottom profile.
