Description

Underwater acoustic recordings collected to record specific anthropogenic events such as diver sounds, boat sound production etc. The sound of interest is intentionally generated or happening at the same moment of the recordings.

Recordings are manually revised to annotate when the events of interest have happened.

All field work was performed with RV Simon Stevin. Recordings were made using several SoundTrap 600HF. 

The manual annotation of the sounds was made using Raven Pro.
