Description

This dataset is form the study: 

Sciacca V., Caruso F.,Beranzoli L., Chierici F., De Domenico E., Embriaco D., Favali P., Giovanetti G., Larosa G., Marinaro G., Papale E., Pavan G., Pellegrino C., Pulvirenti S., Simeone F., Viola S., and G. Riccobene. "Annual Acoustic Presence of Fin Whale (Balaenoptera physalus) Offshore Eastern Sicily, Central Mediterranean Sea." PLoS ONE 10(11): e0141838. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0141838

The archives labeled YYYYMM_Spectrograms.zip contain the data from each  month of passive acoustic recording -MM- of the years -YYYY- 2012 and 2013. Data consist of the spectrograms (1-50 Hz) of 10-min audio recordings, in PNG format files. These data were used in the cited study to verify the presence of fin whale calls.

The archive labeled "NoiseData.zip" consists of two matrix (ASCII format) containing the recorded values of acoustic noise within the fin whale call frequency band.
