The “Introduction to PAMGUARD" workshop at the 27th ECS Conference 2013 will teach participants how to use PAMGUARD effectively in the field. Participants will be taught by experienced PAM operators and developers through a series of classroom lectures and computer sessions.
This workshop should appeal to those looking for an introduction to passive acoustic monitoring (PAM). The workshop will give attendees intense training in using PAMGUARD; ultimately increasing their knowledge and understanding of marine mammal acoustics and its practical applications in the field. Course content will include an introduction to marine mammal and underwater acoustics, the practical application of PAM in marine mammal research and conservation, analysis software and why we use PAMGUARD and a PAMGUARD tutorial (this will be the primary focus). Participants will need to bring their own laptop, mouse and headphones. We are hoping to include as many practical scenarios as possible to fully immerse participants in the use of PAMGUARD.The course should appeal to those looking for the practical experience necessary to become a PAM operator or those with a research interest in this field. The workshop will be delivered on the 7th April 2013 at 27th ECS Conference, Setubal, Portugal between 09:30 and 18:30 The cost of the course will be €25 which will be payable on the morning of the workshop.
