Controlled and in situ target strengths of the jumbo squid Dosidicus gigas and identification of potential acoustic scattering sources

Creator:

Benoit-Bird, Kelly J., Gilly, William F., and Au, Whitlow W. L.

Abstract:

This study presents the first target strength measurements of Dosidicus gigas, a large squid that is a key predator, a significant prey, and the target of an important fishery. Target strength of live, tethered squid was related to mantle length with values standardized to the length squared of −62.0, −67.4,...
