Whales songs can be used to map out the ocean floor.

Fin whales are basically the Barry White of the ocean. The deep, bellowing songs that males use to attract mates are considered to be the loudest of all marine life and can be "heard up to 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) away," according to Scientific American. They can also be used to sonically map out the ocean floor thanks to the fact that the sound can reach depths of 2.5 kilometers (1.6 miles) under the water, which bounces back and provides researchers with accurate measurements.

It's amazing to think that whales, in addition to their many other talents, can be used to map out the ocean floor. The powerful songs of fin whales are truly remarkable and their ability to be heard over such long distances is a testament to the incredible acoustics of the marine environment. The fact that these songs can be used for scientific purposes, such as mapping the ocean floor, highlights the many ways in which marine life can teach us about the world around us. This kind of research is crucial for understanding and preserving the ocean ecosystem and the many species that call it home.

Wonderful!
