Passive Acoustic Monitoring Systems to Support Long-Duration Soundscape Analyses
Abstract
This research grant supports the development and constrution of autonomous passive acoustic monitoring (APAM) systems with wideband, directional capability for long-term (in excess of 3 mos. initially) deployments. The design of these systems is modular, reconfigurable, and expandable, and incorporates the latest developments in low-power data acquisition technology. Each APAM system will be comprised of 12 receiver channels arranged in groups of 4 to provide direction measurements at sample rates up to 50 kHz. A total of seven APAM systems have been proposed to support ONR and other programs that require long duration, high-bandwith, directional acoustic measurements from systems distributed over large study areas in the ocean.
