In 2016, a design for detecting harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) in the Belgian part of the North Sea (BPNS) was developed in the framework of the LifeWatch project using Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) loggers. In 2018, the network of deployments fully matured, and eight locations across the BPNS are presently housed with a C-POD (Chelonia Ltd., UK), a PAM logger moored on the seafloor using a multi-use platform. The PAM logger continuously listens for harbor porpoise click trains, but only stores the click parameters. This paper presents the generated data series of harbor porpoise click trains at a minute-resolution and the details on the individual click trains. The field recordings, methodology and processing are described, along with its data curation, integration and quality control. The data are annually published online in a standardized format, accompanied with the metadata description, and labelled with a digital object identifier for traceability. Data are published under a CC-BY license, allowing the use of data under the condition of providing reference to the original source.
2016 年，在 LifeWatch 项目的框架内，开发了一种用于在比利时北海部分（BPNS）检测港湾鼠海豚（Phocoena phocoena）的设计，该设计使用被动声学监测（PAM）记录器。2018 年，部署网络完全成熟，目前在 BPNS 的八个地点都安置了一个 C-POD（Chelonia Ltd.，英国），这是一个通过多用途平台系泊在海床上的 PAM 记录器。PAM 记录器持续监听港湾鼠海豚的咔哒声列车，但只存储咔哒声参数。本文介绍了以分钟分辨率生成的港湾鼠海豚咔哒声列车的数据集以及关于单个咔哒声列车的详细信息。描述了现场记录、方法和处理过程，以及数据的编目、集成和质量控制。这些数据每年都以标准化格式在线发布，同时附有元数据描述，并标记有数字对象标识符以实现可追溯性。数据根据 CC-BY 许可证发布，允许在提供对原始来源的引用的条件下使用数据。
