BACKGROUND Sound is the sensory cue that travels farthest through the ocean and is used
by marine animals, ranging from invertebrates to great whales, to interpret and explore the …

Marine anthropogenic noise has increased significantly over the past few decades, and a
growing body of research is highlighting the negative impacts this is having on marine eco …

Coastal zones have large social, economic and environmental values. They are more
densely populated than the hinterland and concentrate large economic assets, critical …

Marine noise pollution (MNP) can cause a multitude of impacts on many organisms, but
information is often scattered and general outcomes difficult to assess. We have reviewed …

The acoustic analogy is adopted to characterise the signature of a seven-bladed submarine
propeller, relying on a high-fidelity large-eddy simulation, performed on a computational grid …

Underwater noise from human activities is now widely recognised as a threat to marine life.
Nevertheless, legislation which directly addresses this source of pollution is lacking. The first …

Anthropogenic underwater noise levels have generally increased as industrial activities in
the ocean have become more prevalent. Because of the central nature of sound in the lives …

A voluntary commercial vessel slowdown trial was conducted through 16 nm of shipping
lanes overlapping critical habitat of at-risk southern resident killer whales (SRKW) in the …

Underwater noise pollution from shipping is globally pervasive and has a range of adverse
impacts on species which depend on sound, including marine mammals, sea turtles, fish …

Noise pollution is an anthropogenic stressor that is increasingly recognized for its negative
impact on the physiology, behavior and fitness of marine organisms. Driven by the recent …
