Optimal passive acoustic systems for real-time detection and localization of North Atlantic right whales in their feeding ground off Gaspé in the Gulf of St. Lawrence / by Cédric Gervaise, Yvan Simard,...: Fs97-6/3345E-PDF

"This report addresses the problem of detecting and localizing whales located in a feeding ground bordering a noisy seaway with passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) systems reporting the detections and the localization in real time. This general problem is methodologically addressed using the detection theory, and the relevant formulas for assessing the PAM performance are provided. The method is applied to the special case of North Atlantic right whales (NARW) in the feeding ground area (FGA) off Gaspé in the Gulf of St. Lawrence"--Abstract.
