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 …

Coastal environments, in particular heavily populated semi-enclosed marginal seas and
coasts like the Baltic Sea region, are strongly affected by human activities. A multitude of …

Global reductions in the underwater radiated noise levels from cargo vessels are needed to
reduce increasing cumulative impacts to marine wildlife. We use a vessel exposure …

Offshore wind turbines are increasingly abundant sources of underwater low frequency
noise. This increase raises concern for the cumulative contribution of wind farms to the …

This paper reports trends in the input of underwater noise source energy emission from
global shipping, based on bottom-up modeling of individual ships. In terms of energy, we …

As awareness on the impact of anthropogenic underwater noise on marine life grows,
underwater noise measurement programs are needed to determine the current status of …

Accurate underwater depth estimation is a cornerstone of reaching autonomous underwater
exploration. However, it is incredibly tricky due to the inherent attenuation character and …

Anthropogenic underwater noise has been identified as one of the main pressures on the
marine environment. Considerable research efforts have been made to quantify acoustic …

A longer Arctic open water season is expected to increase underwater noise levels due to
anthropogenic activities such as shipping, seismic surveys, sonar, and construction. Many …

The protection of marine habitats from human-generated underwater noise is an emerging
challenge. Baseline information on sound levels, however, is poorly available, especially in …
