TL;DR: The authors propose a passive acoustic technique requiring only one hydrophone to investigate the acoustic behavior of free-ranging sperm whales, and suggest that sperm whales might, like some small odontocetes, control click level and rhythm.

TL;DR: Using these methods, it is shown that sperm whales would methodically scan seawater while searching for prey, by making periodic pitch and yaw movements in sync with their acoustic activity.

TL;DR: In this article, the adaptive Schur filter was used to detect whale clicks and estimate the click interpulse interval, which can be used to estimate individual body length and assess features of sperm whale populations.

TL;DR: This paper proposes a non-stationary time-series segmentation method based on the analysis of the forward prediction error issued from the adaptive Schur orthogonal signal parameterisation that gives excellent time-reaction properties.
