EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During EX2507

From September 19 - October 3, 2025 from Guam to Koror, Palau, NOAA Ocean Exploration conducted the Beyond the Blue: Palau Mapping 3 expedition (EX2507), a mapping and eDNA collection expedition with opportunistic marine mammal observations to the West Pacific. EX2507 mapped 28,060 sq. km of seafloor (2,325 in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone). All data associated with this expedition have been archived and are publicly available through the NOAA archives. This expedition was originally scheduled for 20 days, intending to begin on September 19 and end on October 8, 2025. Due to a lapse of appropriations in federal funding on October 01, the expedition was impacted resulting in a reduction of operational days at sea.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DS0708

On 26 August, 2007, David Starr Jordan dropped anchor off Shelter Island, San Diego Bay, for approximately 6 hrs to calibrate the echosounders (Simrad EK60). Immediately following the calibration, the ROV was launched to test buoyancy and system functions. Then, the multi-beam transducer was installed on the pole and the pole was mounted on the shipâs port-side. The ship then proceeded to the 43 Fathom Bank. The multi-frequency echosounder survey and ROV transects took priority over all other activities. The echosounder surveys were conducted between sunrise and sunset. The ROV was deployed between sunrise and approximately 1730. The CTD casts and the recoveries of the passive-acoustic loggers were also conducted during daylight hours. The multi-beam transects and the deployments of the passive-acoustic loggers were conducted exclusively at nighttime. 

The 43 Fathom Bank site was surveyed twice during Leg I and once each during Legs II, III and IV, for a total of 5 replicates. At the beginning of Leg I, a long-duration passive acoustic logger (AURAL) was deployed at the 43 Fathom Bank. This logger was recovered at the end of Leg IV. Additionally, during nighttime hours of Leg I only, multi-beam surveys were conducted at 109 Seamount, and 43 Fathom, Cortes, and Tanner Banks. At night during Legs II-IV, the ship 1) deployed the CTD, 2) deployed passive-acoustic loggers, and 3) transited to the next survey segment and was staged to begin the next echosounder survey segment or ROV transect at sunrise.

Multiple-frequency echosounders (Simrad EK60s) were used to sample grids with 0.2 n.mi. transect spacing (0.1 n.mi. for smaller sites) at 47 sites in the SCB. These areas and waypoints were selected from the results of the COAST 2003 and 2004 surveys, and the collective records from multiple Fishing Masters in the commercial fleet (courtesy of Ken Franke). Surveys were conducted between sunrise and sunset (approximately 1400 to 0100 GMT, 0700 to 1800 PST, or 11 hrs per day off daylight savings time or approximately 1245 to 0245 GMT, 0545 to 1945 PST, or 13.5-14 hrs per day; PST=GMT-7 hrs. during daylight savings), at a nominal speed of 7-10 kts. The total trackline, with 0.2 n.mi. transect spacing (0.1 n.mi. for smaller sites), totaled approximately 2654 n.mi.. The rockfishes and seabed in each area were mapped using the backscatter data.

EK80 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During SH2407

Scientists from the NWFSC conducted trawling with pocket nets to investigate the selectivity of the Aleutian Wing Trawl (AWT) and the Multi-Function Trawl (MFT). This included paired trawling with a Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) vessel (Sir John Franklin). This information will serve to support of the Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) stock assessment.

NEFSC Southern New England Bottom-Mounted PAM Audio Data

Passive Acoustic Monitoring data collected in Southern New England waters (offshore of MA and RI). This project is a combination of several efforts to collect baseline information, including: 1) Cox's Ledge with primary goals for monitoring Atlantic Cod spawning grounds, then for long term monitoring ahead of offshore development and; 2) Nantucket Shoals with primary goals for monitoring NARWs in Southern New England ahead of offshore energy development.  Data collected in this area are from bottom mounted passive acoustic recorders, with number of sites changing as research questions and needs shifted over the years. Initial data collection on Cox Ledge was a collaboration with multiple partners including BOEM, NOAA GARFO, Massachusetts Department of Marine Fisheries, The Nature Conservancy, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and SMAST.

DCLDE 2027 Array Monitoring of North Atlantic Right Whales in Cape Cod Bay, MA

An array of five bottom-moored Marine Autonomous Recording Units (MARUs) was deployed in Cape Cod Bay, MA, from February 17th through June 12th of 2019. The MARUs recorded data continuously for 116 days at a sampling rate of 2000 Hz with 16-bit resolution, and the audio was post-processed with a band-pass filter between 10 and 800 Hz. To time-align the recorded audio across the five units, distinctive acoustic signals were recorded synchronously at the start and end of the survey period. Upon recovery, the recordings from the five MARUs were extracted, aligned, and concatenated to form 5-channel 15-minute chronological sound files.

ONMS_FK08_20250513-20250924_HMD part of ONMS Sound Hybrid Millidecade Spectra

To understand natural and anthropogenic sound in the ocean, and to compare underwater soundscapes globally, standard methods of analysis must be applied to passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) data. Methods that balance constrained volume and adequate resolution of acoustic spectra have recently been published (Martin et al., 2021a,b). This record is part of a collection of results from this standardized analysis of PAM data, specifically calculation of hybrid millidecade (HMD) sound pressure levels derived from calibrated passive acoustic data from a long-term monitoring effort in the U.S. national marine sanctuary system. Daily HMD at 1 minute resolution were created using PyPAM software v1.6.3. These data were recorded at FK08 between May 13, 2025 and September 24, 2025.
