Description

This project establishes a national-scale acoustic monitoring network across the eastern Mediterranean Sea to investigate the movement dynamics of marine species. The array consists of strategically deployed acoustic receivers positioned across depth gradients and key habitat types, forming a coordinated detection network along the Turkish coastline.
