08/16/24 02:49:48Possibly detected47.5733-63.7565One classified RW upcall in P10 with a second possible upcall that is unclassified. The calls are mid- to high-amplitude, mid-duration, have adequate shape, and are isolated.
08/16/24 05:49:48Possibly detected47.5774-63.7691Two classified RW upcalls in P10 & 11. The first call is low amplitude and very short, while the second is high amplitude and long duration. Although the calls are isolated, they are poorly shaped.
08/16/24 07:49:48Detected47.5800-63.7755Five classified RW upcalls in P3 and P7 (one classified as HW). Three possible RW upcalls in P2, P3, and P7 (unclassified). The calls in P3 are poorly shaped with artifacts, but they are mid- to high-amplitude, and two of them are isolated. The calls in P7 are high amplitude, with the second classified call having a good shape and duration. These calls, however, are not well isolated, except for the second one (unclassified). Considering that there are five loud calls, of which one is shapely, and at least two are isolated, I am marking this period as Detected.
08/16/24 08:49:48Detected47.5840-63.7786Seven classified RW upcalls in P4, P6, and P7. Five possible RW upcalls in P3-5 (unclassified). All calls in P4 are high amplitude, three of them are shapely with good durations, and one is well isolated. The call in P7 and all unclassified calls in P3-5 are also isolated.
08/16/24 09:49:48Detected47.5868-63.7874Five classified upcalls in P2-4 and P9 (two classified as HW). Nine possible upcalls in P3-4 and P9 (unclassified). Most calls appear to be very long duration due to large artifacts. Seven calls are loud, three are well isolated, and the two classified calls in P4 are shapely despite the artifact in the second call.
08/16/24 10:49:48Detected47.5895-63.7962Eleven classified upcalls in P1-4 (five classified as HW). Four possible upcalls in P2 and P4 that are unclassified (and poorly pitch-tracked). One possible moan in P5. Classified calls are mid- to high-amplitude, with five of them being loud. Two-three calls can be considered isolated. The call classified as HW in P3 is shapely and longer duration. The third classified call in P4 is also shapely. If we consider only the third classified upcall in P2, the classified upcall in P3, and the third classified upcall in P4, we have enough evidence for RW detection.
