You wrote about two weeks ago inquiring about the vocalizations of whales. I
have found a reference that may help you some. The Natural History of Whales
and Dolphins by Peter G.H. Evans. 1987. Published by: Facts On File, Inc.,
460 Park Ave. So., NY, NY 10016
There is a detailed chapter on sound, listing many species of mysticetes and
odontocetes, their sound type, Freq. Range in Hz, Maximum energy in Hz,
Signal Duration, Comments and a listing of the source of that information.
If you cannot find this book, or a similar source, contact me again and I'll
send you these pages.
Good luck again
