Large differences in the distribution of pelagic biomass as a result of sonar frequency choice | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Recent efforts to understand the global distribution of pelagic fauna have primarily relied on 38 kHz sonar observations, using water-column backscatter as a proxy of biomass. However, backscatter gra...
