Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 07:59 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 15, 2023 at 12:00 AM
This record represents dolphin whistle and moan sound production detected from raw passive acoustic data. All acoustic data were processed through Pamguard's Whistle and Moan Detector. For Hawaiin Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary and Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument recorders, a frequency range of 8-20 kHz was selected to encompass the frequency ranges bottlenose dolphins, pan-tropical spotted dolphins, and spinner dolphins. Hours with no detections were assigned as 0 presence. Hours with dolphin were assigned as 1. Presence in an hour was defined as 1+ detected whistles (or part of whistle) so long as it was not a solitary tone. Each detection was not annotated but rather the hour as a whole was marked with a 0 or 1.These data were recorded at SanctSound Site HI04_02 between December 01, 2019 and May 11, 2020.
