Abstract:
This data set was collected as part of the Chukchi Sea Environmental Studies Program (CSESP), a multi-year, interdisciplinary ecological study focused on areas in outer continental shelf oil and gas leases in the northeastern Chukchi Sea. In 2008 when the program began, two 30 x 30 nautical mile study area boxes were developed around areas of interest to ConocoPhillips and Shell. The ConocoPhillips study area (named Klondike), and the Shell study area (named Burger) became the focus of data collection. Data were collected from these two study areas again in 2009. Then, in 2010, Statoil joined the program, and a third study area, Statoil, was created and sampled as well as Klondike and Burger. In 2011 and 2012, the scope of the study area was expanded to include the Hanna Shoal Regional Study Area. Throughout the entire program, passive acoustic data collection targeted a larger area extending from Cape Lisburne to Barrow out to approximately 100 nautical miles.
The CSESP interdisciplinary studies include acoustic monitoring, baseline chemistry, benthic ecology, chemical oceanography, fisheries ecology, marine mammal ecology, physical oceanography, plankton ecology and nutrients, and seabird ecology.
This data set contains descriptions of representative sound clips from acoustic acquisition in the NE Chukchi Sea from 2008 to 2012. Accompanying sound clips are in *.wav file format. Parameters of the acoustic sound clip catalog include the name of the recorder from which the sound clip was obtained, the name of the .wav file, the name of the spectra plot , the source of the sound recorded, the local dates and times the sound was recorded, a description of the sound, the study year, notes concerning the record, the title of the annual report the data set supports, and the name of the contractor who gathered the data. The related data set entitled Passive Acoustic Acquisition, NE Chukchi Sea, 2009-2012 contains recorder information and mooring locations.
Purpose:
The objectives of the Chukchi Sea Environmental Baseline Studies Program are: 1. To provide data for pre-exploration and development-related activities 2. To provide data for permit applications 3. To provide input to planning of future operations and associated mitigation 4. To provide additional baseline data that can be used to assess and measure the potential environmental effects of offshore oil and gas exploration and development in the northeastern Chukchi Sea

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Each year the primary investigators spent approximately nine months analyzing their data and then produced a discipline specific annual report for CSESP and a final data set. The final data had to adhere to a predetermined data protocol and pass through a data validation tool in order to be accepted by the data manager. Data that did not pass validation were returned to the primary investigators to be corrected and resubmitted for validation.
Completeness_Report:
This data set includes supporting documents which constists of a series of sound files and spectrogram image files.
