Abstract:
This record represents fin whale detection from recordings at the Monterey Accelerated Research System (MARS)
cabled observatory. MARS resides on the continental slope outside Monterey Bay, California at a depth of 890
m. It's location is in the center of Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Since 28 July 2015, MARS has
supported nearly continuous sound recording at a sample rate of 256 kHz. Long term spectral averages with a
resolution of 5 seconds/1 Hz were manually scanned using consistent intensity and contrast settings
throughout the time-series. Visual detections were paired with examination of the fin whale call index
(Sirovic et al., 2015). The analysis period for these detection is standardized across SanctSound sites to
allow for direct comparison.These data were recorded at SanctSound Monterey Accelerated Research System
between November 01, 2018 and October 31, 2020.
Purpose:
These data are available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.

Sound Monitoring
Description:
NOAA and the U.S. Navy are working to better understand underwater sound within the
National Marine Sanctuary System. For the next few years, these agencies will work with
numerous scientific partners to study sound within seven national marine sanctuaries and
one marine national monument, which includes waters off Hawai'i and the east and west
coasts. Standardized acoustic measurements are used to assess sounds produced by marine
animals, physical processes (e.g., wind and waves), and human activities. Collectively,
this information will help NOAA and the Navy measure sound levels and baseline acoustic
conditions in sanctuaries. This work is a continuation of ongoing Navy and NOAA
monitoring and research, including efforts by the NOAA Office of National Marine
Sanctuaries.
