Contents & fields

The dataset contains long-term underwater acoustic recordings downloaded from an instrument deployed west of Davis Station. Data are 24-bit WAV audio files recorded on a duty cycle: 60 s at 512 kHz, followed by 580 s at 32 kHz, then 280 s off. File names follow the format AMAR serial number followed by UTC start time, e.g., AMAR897.20210722T061621Z.wav. Calibrated sound pressure measurements are included.
