One-third Octave Band Sound Pressure Levels at 1 Hour Resolution Recorded at SanctSound Site SB03_20

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 02, 2026 at 11:01 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 28, 2023 at 12:00 AM
This record represents the one-third octave band sound pressure levels (TOLs) derived from raw passive acoustic data. TOLs were calculated by integration of sound pressure spectral density estimates of the mean-square pressure with a 1 Hz/1 second resolution over 33 one-third octave bands with the nominal center frequencies ranging from 13 to 20,000 Hz. The result is then calculated per hour as a median over no less than 1,800 1-second values for that hour and converted to decibels (dB re 1 µPa).These data were recorded at SanctSound Site SB03_20 between February 16, 2022 and April 22, 2022.
