Sei whale:

Date/time (local)OccurrenceLatitudeLongitudeNotes
03/30/26 17:32:24Detected42.8836-70.0775Classified NARW call in P12 is just very faint/jagged and looks more like artifact so not detected. Bp met detection criteria in P14-15, with INI ~ 16 seconds. Classified Mn down sweeps in P15 look like sei whale doublets but not classified as such. Theres is also another potential unclassified downsweep in P13. As pitch tracks classified as 17 can be considered sei in the absence of Mn activity, going with detected for sei whale.
03/30/26 19:16:55Detected42.8895-70.0982Criteria met for fin in P1-2. Downsweeps in P3 and P7 that are classified as humpback look like sei whale doublets. There is also another unclassified doublet in P10, all have high amplitude and match examples in protocol well (***downsweeps in doublets are 3.5 secs apart as defined by Baumgartner et al. 2008) and no humpback present so I am marking as detected.
03/30/26 19:47:24Detected42.8918-70.1022Good example of criteria met for fin in P9-10. Classified humpback in P7 looks like Sei whale doublet, strong amplitude, matches examples in protocol well, (***downsweeps in doublets are 3.5 secs apart as defined by Baumgartner et al. 2008) and no humpback present so marking as detected.

03/30/26 03:02:24Detected42.8844-69.9858There are a lot of artifacts around making me skeptical of unclassified frequency modulated call in P4, so leaving Mn as not detected. Bp pulses in P4-P5 just meet detected criteria with INI ~16 seconds.

03/30/26 22:17:24Possibly detected42.8933-70.1245Marking fin as possibly detected primarily based on P11, P12-13 and 15 does have a couple of classified pulses and there is one possible unclassified pulse in P11 that could be fin but it's not convincing enough to break protocol and mark as detected. NARW in P6 looks like background noise, fits in well, same amplitude and the structure does not look like upsweep so marking as not detected.
