For their study, researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries West Coast Region
used hydrophone surveys in order to better understand how marine species respond to climate change.
Monitor endangered Pacific Northwest killer whales by detecting orca sounds and measuring noise levels
using hydrophones
Our guides
use hydrophones when the orcas are in view so that you can thrill to the orcas vocalizing to each other underwater!

The researchers measured the sound produced by the fish
using an echo sounder (a sonar unit) and a
hydrophone (underwater microphone).

used by the military to track Soviet subs.
To prevent from altering the properties of the champagne bubbles, researchers resorted to
using a very small
hydrophone.
The researchers
used a small boat to tow an array of underwater microphones, called
hydrophones, about 2 meters below the surface and recorded the sounds of individual dolphins identified by their dorsal fins.

Using the three
hydrophones from the Cape Leeuwin station, it was possible to get a precise bearing that showed the signal came from the north - west.

use underwater microphones called
hydrophones on oceanographic moorings to listen for the sounds made by marine mammals.
Researchers at IMDEA Networks (Spain) in collaboration with University of Haifa (Israel) have developed an underwater acoustic system for the localization of marine mammals, underwater vehicles and other sound sources in the ocean,
using no more than a single
hydrophone (basically an underwater microphone) as a receiver.
As conventional localization algorithms such as those
used in GPS - like systems can not be directly ported to an underwater scenario, in this innovative system the localization is performed thanks to the incorporation of additional information about the environment surrounding the receiving
hydrophone.

using a series of underwater
hydrophones to record the sound of the whales over hundreds of miles of ocean.
