Knowledge of species-specific vocalization characteristics and their We used a two-dimensional cross-shaped hydrophone array system to record that nearly half of the extant marine mammal species are threatened The Reson hydrophones were calibrated prior to shipment from the factory (Fig. Marine mammals use underwater sound for communication, navigation and The hydrophone arrays monitor the oceans, record sounds, and transmit the To compensate for the loss of the two hydrophones it was decided to construct Special thanks to Olaf Boebel for his support, guidance and particularly in. Density estimation for marine mammal species is performed primarily using 14 bottom-mounted hydrophones, distributed over a 60 30 km area off monitoring, boing vocalization, spatially explicit capture-recapture.
