Development of passive acoustic monitoring systems for Northern right whales
Both species of northern right whale (North Atlantic, Eubalaena glacialís and North Pacific, Eubalaena japonica) are critically endangered. The overall distribution of these small, migratory populations is not well known, especially outside of summer. Passive acoustic monitoring is a tool that could...
