Very-low-frequency sounds between 1 and 100 Hz propagate large distances in the ocean
sound channel. Weather conditions, earthquakes, marine mammals, and anthropogenic …

The low-frequency vocalizations of fin and blue whales are the most powerful and
ubiquitous biological sounds in the ocean,. Here we combine acoustic localization and …

Blue (Balaenoptera musculus) and fin whales (B. physalus) produce high-intensity, low-
frequency calls, which probably function for communication during mating and feeding. The …

Managing interactions between human activities and marine mammals often relies on an
understanding of the real‐time distribution or occurrence of animals. Visual surveys typically …

Five species of large whales, including the blue (Balaenoptera musculus), fin (B. physalus),
sei (B. borealis), humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae), and North Pacific right (Eubalaena …

Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) is a technique that measures strain changes along an
optical fiber to distances of∼ 100 km with a spatial sensitivity of tens of meters. In November …

Signal source intensity and detection range, which integrates source intensity with
propagation loss, background noise and receiver hearing abilities, are important …

Habitat loss is a leading cause of biodiversity loss in terrestrial ecosystems. For marine
species that rely on acoustic cues to navigate, find food or select mates, sound is a key …

Male fin whales sing by producing 20 Hz pulses in regular patterns of inter-note intervals.
While singing, fin whales may also alternate the frequency ranges of their notes. Different …

Most baleen whales undertake migrations between low-latitude breeding grounds and high-
latitude feeding grounds. Though little is known about the timing of their migration from the …
