Abstract
    Monitoring ecological changes in marine ecosystems is expensive and time-consuming. Passive acoustic methods provide continuous monitoring of soniferous species, are relatively inexpensive, and can be integrated into a larger network to provide enhanced spatial and temporal coverage of ecological events. We demonstrate how these methods can be used to detect changes in fish populations in response to a Karenia brevis red tide harmful algal bloom by examining sound spectrum levels recorded by two land-based passive acoustic listening stations (PALS) deployed in Sarasota Bay, Florida, before and during a red tide event. Significant and temporally persistent decreases in sound spectrum levels were recorded in real time at both PALS in four frequency bands spanning 0.172–20 kHz after K. brevis cells were opportunistically sampled near the stations. The decrease in sound spectrum levels and increase in K. brevis cell concentrations also coincided with decreased catch per unit effort (CPUE) and species density per unit effort (SDPUE) data for non-clupeid fish and soniferous fish species, as well as increased reports of marine mammal mortalities in the region. These findings demonstrate how PALS can detect and report in real time ecological changes from episodic disturbances, such as harmful algal blooms.
