Popis: This work involves the application of a non-linear method, multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA), to describe fish sound data recorded from the open waters of two major estuarine systems. Applying MFDFA, the second-order Hurst exponent [Formula: see text] values are found to be [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for the fish families Batrachoididae (common name: Toadfish) and Sciaenidae (common name: Croakers, drums), respectively. The generalized Hurst exponent [Formula: see text]-related width parameters [Formula: see text] are found to be [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively, for toadfish and Sciaenidae vocalizations, implying greater heterogeneity and multifractal characteristics. The results suggest that the Sciaenidae fish calls are smoother in comparison with Batrachoididae. Clustering of multifractal spectrum-related parameters with respect to toadfish and Sciaenidae vocalization characteristics is observed in this analyses.
