Sei whale:

Date/time (local)OccurrenceLatitudeLongitudeNotes
05/28/24 08:20:15Possibly detected48.4277-61.8289Possible SW downsweeps (four classified singlets in P4, 6, & 15) or BW D calls throughout the period; potential concave-down calls in P2, 3, & 15, although concavity is very slight and difficult to confirm, so both species have been scored as 'possible'.
05/28/24 08:35:15Possibly detected48.4278-61.8289Possible SW downsweeps (one classified singlet in P3) or BW D calls in P1-6; potential concave-down call in P2, although concavity is very slight and difficult to confirm, so both species have been scored as 'possible'.
05/28/24 17:05:15Possibly detected48.4791-61.8528Possible SW downsweeps in P12 (classified) and P14 & 15 (unclassified).
05/28/24 17:20:15Possibly detected48.4793-61.8528Possible SW downsweeps in P6 & 11 (classified) and P1, 2, 5-10, & 13-15; the shape of the call in P13 indicates that these may be BW D calls instead, but lack of any downward concavity across calls precludes scoring possible BW presence.
05/28/24 17:35:15Detected48.4795-61.8528Potential SW presence; two probable SW doublets in P3 & 8 (each with one classified call and a 3.5 s INI), one classified SW singlet in P3, and possible SW singlets in P1, 2, & 5-14 (either classified as HW call type 17 or unclassified).
05/28/24 17:50:15Possibly detected48.4796-61.8529Possible SW downsweeps in P5 & 6 (classified) and in P7-15 (either classified as HW call type 17 or unclassified). The calls in P12 & 13 have little discernable concavity, so this period should be treated cautiously, as this could indicate BW presence in addition to or instead of SWs. Also, the classified SW calls have lower amplitudes than the possible BW D calls, meaning there could be multiple calling animals/species here.
05/28/24 18:05:15Possibly detected48.4798-61.8529Possible SW downsweeps in P4 (classified) and P5-7 & 9-12 (either classified as HW call type 17 or unclassified); the call in P6 appears to have downward concavity, indicating that these calls may instead be attributable to BW presence, therefore, both species have been scored as 'possibly detected'.
05/28/24 18:20:15Detected48.4800-61.8530Potential SW presence; three classified singlets in P6, 8, & 14 and possible additional singlets in P3-7, 9, & 12 (unclassified).
05/28/24 18:35:15Possibly detected48.4802-61.8530Possible SW downsweeps in P2 & 10 (classified).
05/28/24 20:05:15Possibly detected48.5068-61.9148Possible SW downsweeps in P14 (classified) and P15 (unclassified).
