Acoustic Data
Representation of a full 24 hours of data from the float deployed in 2024 as part of the Autonomous, Directional Acoustic Profiling Float for Soundscape Characterization project. From top to bottom: spectrogram (i.e., time-frequency representation of data), azimuth angles to sources of sound, and the float dive depth and displacement volume. Periods when the float surfaced were characterized by high ambient noise from winds and waves, while the highest quality data was captured when the float was parked at depth.
