Right whale:

Date/time (local)OccurrenceLatitudeLongitudeNotes
07/21/23 00:14:52Detected47.5711-63.3224Three classified RW upcalls in P14-15. The calls are frequency- and amplitude- modulated, have good shape, and are isolated.
07/21/23 03:14:52Possibly detected47.5856-63.3240One classified RW upcall in P3 and possibly a second one (unclassified) on the same panel. The calls are similar shape and duration, low- to mid-amplitude, and are isolated.
07/21/23 03:29:52Possibly detected47.5872-63.3246One classified RW upcall in P1. Although the shape is poor and artifacts are present, the call is isolated, frequency- and amplitude-modulated, and was classified.
07/21/23 06:14:52Possibly detected47.6001-63.3255One classified RW upcall in P14. The call is loud, has adequate shape, and is off- beat from low-frequency pitch tracks around.
07/21/23 09:14:52Possibly detected47.6119-63.3133One classified RW upcall in P6 and possibly a second one in P13 classified as HW. The calls are isolated, similar shape and duration, although the frequency and amplitude notably differ.
07/21/23 10:14:52Detected47.6145-63.3122Three classified RW upcalls in P14-15; two of them are loud calls, the first being isolated.
07/21/23 11:14:52Detected47.6190-63.3099Six classified RW upcalls in P2 and P12-16; five of the calls toward the end of the period are loud with similar shape and duration.
07/21/23 13:14:52Possibly detected47.6265-63.3059Two classified RW upcalls in P13; they are loud calls with similar shape and duration, although artifacts are present. Possible RW upcalls in P7 and P14 (unclassified); the second one is a loud call, similar to the calls in P13.
07/21/23 15:14:52Possibly detected47.6361-63.3081Possible RW upcall classified as HW in P14 and two other possible calls (unclassified) in P15, which seem to have a checkmark shape. The classified call is loud, long-duration, and well-distinguished from other pitch tracks around.
07/21/23 16:14:52Possibly detected47.6449-63.3128One classified RW upcall in P7; it is loud and has good shape and duration, although an artifact is present.
07/21/23 20:14:52Possibly detected47.6601-63.3170One classified RW upcall in P4 and possibly a second on in P7 (unclassified). The calls are loud and have good shape and duration.
07/21/23 22:14:52Detected47.6658-63.3153Eight classified RW upcalls in P3-8 and P15-16. Possible RW upcalls (unclassified) in P2, 3, 5, 13, and 16. Several loud, isolated calls with good shape and duration.


Humpback whale:

Date/time (local)OccurrenceLatitudeLongitudeNotes
07/21/23 05:29:52Detected47.5968-63.3291Presumable HW song; there are few panels to assess, but the presence of loud calls and repetition of sounds in P3-4 are convincing of HW detection.
07/21/23 21:14:52Possibly detected47.6629-63.3163Although there are two classified RW upcalls in P3 and 5 and possible calls (unclassified) in P3-5 and 8, the mid-frequency calls in P3, 7, 8, and 10 are suggestive of HW presence. In addition, the upcalls are at a similar amplitude and amongst the other likely biological sounds, meaning there is a good chance that these calls are HW song units.
