Dear MARMAM readers, I am excited to announce the upcoming DCLDE2024 workshop, to be held June 2 to 7 of 2024 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. This workshop on Detection, Classification, Localisation and Density Estimation (DCLDE) of marine mammals is held on a bi-annual basis. During this workshop participants share their recent insights into algorithms and technology for acoustic monitoring of marine mammals. The workshop will be focused on studies using dedicated workshop datasets. In addition, we also expect to have some sessions more broadly related to DCLDE techniques. The workshop is open to anyone with an interest in the topic. Datasets are provided by the workshop organization so that the community can work on this dataset and results can be compared. This year's workshop dataset is related to real-time localisation of North Atlantic right whales using sonobuoy networks. The use of distributed fields of sensor systems for real-time acoustic monitoring and tracking of marine mammals is becoming increasingly used in the field, and expected to be of wide interest. You can find out how to access the workshop dataset by visiting our website: www.dclde2024.com<http://www.dclde2024.com>. We have selected a great venue located in the center of Rotterdam, which is the largest European port, a popular cultural hub, and is well known for its modern architecture. We are still working on the timeline for abstract submission , which is expected to be due early 2024.
