07/04/23 01:14:52Possibly detected47.7808-63.2628Three classified RW upcalls in P13-14. The calls have good shape but include some artifacts. Two of the calls are loud and the third one is lower frequency. The louder call in P14 is not isolated, though it is offbeat from other sounds. Because there are artifacts in the louder calls, one of them not being isolated, and the only call that is isolated (third one) having inconsistent frequency and large artifacts, I marked as Possibly detected.
07/04/23 02:14:52Detected47.7999-63.2918Seven classified RW upcalls in P9, P10, P12, P13, and P16. Possible unclassified RW upcalls in P9 and P13. Most calls are low-amplitude, except for a loud call in P9. The calls have good shape, except the ones in P13 and P16 that have many artifacts. Most calls have adequate duration and the number of classified upcalls provide confidence for a RW detection.
07/04/23 17:44:52Possibly detected47.8574-63.3425Two classified RW upcalls in P11-12. Although the first call is low-amplitude with artifacts, it has adequate shape. The second call is very faint, short-duration, has artifacts, and is not isolated from other pitch tracks.
07/04/23 18:29:52Detected47.8569-63.3428Three classified RW upcalls in P1-3 (and 7 others that are not shown). The calls in P2-3 have good shape, longer duration, and mid- to high-amplitude, although they have artifacts at the end. The call in P1 has shorter duration, but the three calls together are convincing of a RW detection.
07/04/23 19:14:52Detected47.8563-63.3431Five classified RW upcalls in P5, P6, P8, P12, and P14. Possible unclassified RW upcalls in P2, P3, and P11. The call in P12 is loud, isolated, has good shape and duration. The call in P14 is also high-amplitude, though it includes artifacts. The call in P5 is mid-amplitude and has good shape, but is not completely isolated. The shape, duration, and amplitude of some of the calls, in addition to the number of classified upcalls, are convincing of a RW detection.
07/04/23 20:14:52Possibly detected47.8506-63.3528Two classified RW upcalls in P2-3. They have similar shape and duration, although the first call is higher amplitude. They seem off-beat compared to other pitch tracks around.
07/04/23 21:14:52Possibly detected47.8449-63.3625Two classified RW upcalls in P8 and P15. They have similar shape and duration, and both have artifacts and pitch tracks around, though they seem off-beat. The call in P8 is loud.
07/04/23 22:14:52Detected47.8473-63.3675Seven classified RW upcalls in P5, P8, P9, P11, and P12. Unclassified RW upcalls in P9 and P11. P11-12 have four loud calls (3 classified, 1 unclassified) with good shape and long duration, and they are mostly isolated.

07/04/23 00:29:5247.7814-63.2630Possible RW upcall (unclassified) in P2. It has adequate shape, though it includes artifacts and is not isolated.

07/04/23 01:19:0047.7808-63.2628One classified RW upcall in P1. It is very faint with artifacts.
07/04/23 02:14:5247.7999-63.2918Seven classified RW upcalls in P9, P10, P12, P13, and P16. Possible unclassified RW upcalls in P9 and P13. Most calls are low-amplitude, except for a loud call in P9.

07/04/23 07:14:5247.8024-63.3118Possible RW upcall (unclassified) in P10. It is a faint, short-duration call.
07/04/23 09:14:5247.8024-63.3126One classified RW upcall in P6. It is a faint call with adequate shape and is offbeat from other sounds.
07/04/23 10:14:5247.8143-63.3039One classified RW upcall in P4. The portion of the call without artifacts is too short to determine the true shape, though it is high amplitude right in the beginning.
07/04/23 10:29:5247.8144-63.3030Possible RW upcall classified as HW in P7. It is a mid-amplitude call with adequate shape. However, it has an artifact in the final portion and is the only classified call in the period.
07/04/23 17:14:5247.8572-63.3416One classified RW upcall in P14. The shape seems adequate, but it has artifacts, is low-amplitude, and is preceded by other pitch tracks.
07/04/23 17:44:5247.8574-63.3425Two classified RW upcalls in P11-12. Although the first call is low-amplitude with artifacts, it has adequate shape. The second call is very faint, short-duration, has artifacts, and is not isolated from other pitch tracks.
07/04/23 18:14:5247.8571-63.3427One classified RW upcall in P15, but it is low-amplitude with an artifact, and similar in frequency and amplitude to surrounding sounds that are likely attributable to background noise.
07/04/23 18:29:5247.8569-63.3428Three classified RW upcalls in P1-3 (and 7 others that are not shown). The calls in P2-3 have good shape, longer duration, and mid- to high-amplitude, although they have artifacts at the end. The call in P1 has shorter duration, but the three calls together are convincing of a RW detection.
07/04/23 19:14:5247.8563-63.3431Five classified RW upcalls in P5, P6, P8, P12, and P14. Possible unclassified RW upcalls in P2, P3, and P11. The call in P12 is loud, isolated, has good shape and duration. The call in P14 is also high-amplitude, though it includes artifacts. The call in P5 is mid-amplitude and has good shape, but is not completely isolated. The shape, duration, and amplitude of some of the calls, in addition to the number of classified upcalls, are convincing of a RW detection.
07/04/23 20:14:5247.8506-63.3528Two classified RW upcalls in P2-3. They have similar shape and duration, although the first call is higher amplitude. They seem off-beat compared to other pitch tracks around.
07/04/23 21:14:5247.8449-63.3625Two classified RW upcalls in P8 and P15. They have similar shape and duration, and both have artifacts and pitch tracks around, though they seem off-beat. The call in P8 is loud.

07/04/23 23:14:5247.8490-63.3799One classified SW call in P13. The shape seems reasonable except for an artifact in the beginning, and it is partially high-amplitude, but the call is not isolated from other sounds above it.
