Xeitl Sít’ (LeConte Glacier) acoustic data 2016–2017

### Access
All acoustic data files in .wav and .DSG format can be accessed and downloaded from the directory via: [http://arcticdata.io/data/10.18739/A2VD6P67P](http://arcticdata.io/data/10.18739/A2VD6P67P).

### Overview
This dataset contains passive underwater acoustic recordings from an autonomous hydrophone (Loggerhead Instruments DSG-ST) moored at a depth of 120 meters (m) in Xeitl Geeyi (LeConte Bay), Alaska approximately 400 m from Xeitl Sit’ (LeConte Glacier). Data were collected from October 9, 2016 to May 10, 2017.

Raw data files from the recorder are compressed .DSG files, which require the included DSGread.m MATLAB file to convert to acoustic pressure. Recordings are also included in WAV format, which may be read by any audio processing software. Ambient noise levels, defined as the 25th-percentile-level, may be computed for individual DSG files using the included AmbientNoiseLevelComputation.m script.

Acoustic data may be compared with additional data sets captured of the environment during this time, including meteorological data from Amundson, et al. (2017) (https://doi.org/10.18739/A2K86G) and motion of icebergs using time-lapse photography from Amundson, et al. (2017) (https://doi.org/10.18739/A2J38KJ1W).
