Evaluation of a coastal acoustic buoy for cetacean detections, bearing accuracy and exclusion zone monitoring by Kaitlin J. Palmer, Sam Tabbutt, Douglas Gillespie, Jesse Turner, Paul King, Dominic Tollit, Jessica Thompson, Jason Wood

“…Five units were deployed in Mid‐Atlantic waters and we played more than 3500 simulated right whale upcalls at known locations to characterize the detection function and bearing accuracy of each unit. The modelled results of the detection function error were then used to compare the effectiveness of a bearing‐based system to a single sensor that can only detect a signal but not ascertain directivity. …”
