New England/Mid-Atlantic
Seven scientists stand in front of a research vessel’s wheelhouse near the bow while at sea. Some are wearing orange foul weather pants, baseball hats, t-shirts, and sunglasses. The sea is calm and there is a light layer of fog in the background hovering above the water. The sky is blue and there are a few white, wispy clouds.

Model-Based Localization for Deep-Diving Cetaceans Using Towed Line Array Acoustic Data

A model-based localization approach is applied to account for errors not typically accounted for by the standard method of passive acoustic monitoring when conducting line-transect cetacean abundance surveys.

This illustration shows the variety of technologies that NOAA Fisheries researchers use to record underwater sounds and study marine animals. The seascape shows bottom- mounted and drifting acoustic recorders, underwater autonomous vehicles, Atlantic cod and humpback whale with tags, and instruments deployed from a NOAA ship and small boat. Colored circles show a zoomed-in view of the instruments and indicate the type of data collected: green for real-time data, orange for archival data, and blue for active

Geographic and Temporal Patterns in the Acoustic Detection of Sperm Whales

This 2005-2013 study confirms the broad distribution of sperm whales across the North Pacific and highlights subtle temporal patterns in their acoustic activity, which may be related to shifts in animal behavior or movement.
