Marine mammal acoustic detections in the Greenland and Barents Sea, 2013 – 2014 seasons
While the Greenland and Barents Seas are known habitats for several cetacean and pinniped species there is a lack of long-term monitoring data in this rapidly changing environment. Moreover, little is known of the ambient soundscapes, and increasing of-shore anthropogenic activities can infuence the...
