About
Since 2007, visual and acoustic cetacean monitoring efforts in the Mariana Islands have documented the occurrence of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) during winter months. However, these efforts have focused mainly around the southern portion of the archipelago, in particular Saipan and Tinian. This report presents an analysis of passive acoustic data for humpback whale song near the islands of Maug and Pagan in the northern portion of the archipelago.
