Annotation

New multi-channel complexes of registration marine mammals’ bioacoustic activity on digital medium have greatly increased the possibilities of the researcher. When planning up-to-date laboratory experiment or conducting ethological acoustic observations in the open sea the researcher needs facilities for storage and further processing of data recorded during field studies. The created database is designed for classification of measurement results, storage and minimization of large amount of hydroacoustic data and its subsequent use in computational experiments.
