Beaked whale group deep dive behavior from passive acoustic monitoring
Abstract
While much information is known about individual beaked whale behavior at depth from Digital acoustic recording Tags (DTags), little is known about beaked whale group dive behavior at depth. This lack of information makes it difficult to interpret the results of single animal exposures to anthropogenic noise, and their impact on long term foraging success and population health. The objective of this study is to provide novel information on beaked whale group foraging dive behavior using Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) at the Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC).
