CORVALLIS, Ore., Dec. 14 (UPI) -- Scientists believe a new, complex call recorded in the Mariana Trench was produced by a baleen whale. The call, dubbed the "Western Pacific Biotwang," was recorded and analyzed by researchers at the University of Oregon's Hatfield Marine Science Center.
The lengthy and varied call features a range of frequencies. It include five parts. The initial sections feature deep moans, as low as 38 hertz. The call crescendos with a high pitch of 8,000 hertz.
