Underwater sound mapping is increasingly being used as a tool for monitoring and
managing noise pollution from shipping in the marine environment. Sound maps typically …

The effect of underwater radiated noise (URN) pollution (produced by merchant ships) on
marine ecology has become a topic of extreme concern for both the academic community …

There is increasing concern within the scientific community about the underwater noise due
to anthropogenic activity and its impact on marine life, with negative consequences on …

Marine geophysical surveys (widely known as “seismic surveys”) are used to map oil and
gas reservoirs in marine regions throughout the world. These seismic surveys make use of …

An analytical formulation for the calculation of the range and depth-dependence of
propagation loss in isospeed water is introduced. The range-dependent bathymetry is …

This paper aimed at comparing different propagation models for the calculation of sound
pressure fields in the ocean as well as sound exposure levels. The chosen models are freely …

Abstract Sound Pressure Levels were recorded using an Automated Noise Measurement
System, during July 2015–April 2016 at the Kongsfjorden, Arctic. The fjord houses the …

Abstract In EU FP7 project SONIC, partners set out in October 2012 to study the underwater
radiated noise of ships and shipping. The objectives of the project were (1) to study the …

Economic globalization and the continuous search for food, energy and raw materials led to
an estimated 3 dB/decade increase of ocean noise intensity. Determining the level of …

Computer models can be used to predict the sound field near an airgun or airgun array. The
accuracy of such predictions can be assessed either by a process of verification …
