What does coyote pack howling, yiping mean?

I don't know the research project you are referring to, but I will look around. I did find this one.

As far as "packs" go, I wouldn't conclude that just because I say 10 or 15 coyotes together, that they were an organized pack. They may just be together for a short period, or really large family group.

I have not been directly involved in any coyote research, so it is hard for me to say.

I know that on one of Byron's videos he has a scene with about 13 coyotes in a pasture at one time.
 
Got a new book for Christmas:
Predator Calling with Gerry Blair, 2nd Edition.
Chapter 10, Coyote Communications - Higgins (Rich and/or Tyler); explains in some detail what the different sounds coyotes make, their meaning and use.
Anyone else read this book?
