R script to obtain Fig. 3. Acoustic data from 21 deployments in the time-frequency domain.

Whisker-Boxplot with detection positive 10-min intervals per hour (dp10m h-1) grouped per deployments with Nemenyi test (black < 0.05; red < 0.01) and mean SST (°C, white circles). The representation follows the seasonal regime, but not the chronological order of sampling, please refer to Fig. S1.

R script to obtain Fig. 4. CircSizer map of acoustic data.

CircSizer map of acoustic detections relative to hour of the day (A) and lunar cycle (B). A blue color pattern indicates a condition, where detections increased significantly, red pattern indicate the opposite, while purple and grey zones refer to areas with no significant changes or data inefficiency, respectively (Oliveira, Crujeiras & Rodríguez-Casal, 2014; NM: new; Wax. waxing; FM: full and Wan: waning moon).
