Acoustic occurrence of deep‐diving cetaceans in the southern Adriatic Sea
Abstract Goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris) and sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) are two deep‐diving odontocete species known to occur in the southern Adriatic Sea, based on intermittent stranding and sighting data. To get a better understanding of their presence in this region, we studied the occurrence of echolocation clicks produced by ...
