Date/time (local)LatitudeLongitudeNotes
12/03/19 01:25:2434.1098-119.7742Pair of straight signals at 200 Hz in panel 16 likely not biological
12/03/19 01:55:2434.1098-119.7742Lots of jagged, faint HF tones here that are likely background noise; strong straight signals at 200 Hz in panel 5 also seems probable for mechanical/vessel noise
12/03/19 07:10:2434.1098-119.7742Many short, faint sporadic tones here but nothing structured enough to be convincing for biological sound
12/03/19 07:55:2434.1098-119.7742Lots of HF tones here, some of which could be humpback but no real pattern and most of the signals seem pretty short & ragged, so not very convincing
12/03/19 13:55:2434.1098-119.7742Some HF sound on panels 8-10, maybe humbpacks but not consistent yet.
12/03/19 17:40:2434.1098-119.7742Sporadic faint MF tracks in panels 6-7; still not quite humpbacky enough
12/03/19 17:55:2434.1098-119.7742MF tracks getting a bit higher intensity (panels 15-16)
12/03/19 18:10:2434.1098-119.7742Sporadic 800 Hz tracks
12/03/19 18:25:2434.1098-119.7742More sporadic 800-1000 Hz short tracks
12/03/19 20:25:2434.1098-119.7742Variety of tacks on panels 5-8 could possibly be 40 Hz pulses, but intensity not high.
12/03/19 20:40:2434.1098-119.7742Panels 1-3 - more LF short pulses Panels 6-9 HF short pulses, but very sporadic
12/03/19 20:55:2434.1098-119.7742Short LF pulses 3-4 and even lower frequency on panels 8-9
12/03/19 21:25:2434.1098-119.7742A variety of LF short pulses (50-100 Hz) - possibly 40 Hz fin calls?
12/03/19 21:40:2434.1098-119.7742A couple of nice A-B sequences
12/03/19 21:55:2434.1098-119.7742More A-B sequences
12/03/19 22:10:2434.1098-119.7742Both clear and more sporadic A-B sequences
12/03/19 22:25:2434.1098-119.7742Just B calls, but getting fainter
12/03/19 22:40:2434.1098-119.7742Looks like fundamental is getting detected, not harmonic
12/03/19 22:55:2434.1098-119.7742Very loud sequence; again mostly fundamental, but some switching between harmonic and fundamental getting tracked.
12/03/19 23:55:2434.1098-119.7742Loud A and Bs
