About

Little is known about the ecology, habitat preferences, or seasonal distributions of beaked whale species (family Ziphiidae) in the western North Atlantic. Here we present an analysis of passive acoustic monitoring data which provides a multi-year record of beaked whale acoustic activity at two sites along the shelf break off North Carolina: Cape Hatteras (HAT) and Onslow Bay (OB).
