***apologies for cross-postings*** The 2020 *Discovery of Sound in the Sea (DOSITS) <http://www.dosits.org>* webinar series on underwater acoustics has been a great success. Over 350 participants from 24 countries participated in the October 22, 2020, webinar on passive acoustics data and the decision making process. If you missed this webinar, which covered passive acoustic monitoring and how data gathered can inform the decision making process, especially with regards to marine mammals, a webinar archive is now available and can be found here <https://dosits.org/decision-makers/webinar-series/2020-webinar-series/passive-acoustics-data/>. A PDF of Dr. Henderson's presentation, as well as a Q&A summary is also available for download.
