Review of Research Results Concerning the Modelling of Shipping Noise
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 and the general public. This paper summarises some research results and modelling

Underwater ambient noise is primarily a background noise which is a function of time, location, and depth. Background baseline of the noise in ocean is represented by ambient noise generated from the ocean surface due to wind and rain. This understanding pertained to ambient noise under various conditions will help in improving the signal-to-noise ...

Acoustic behavior of melon-headed whales varies on a diel cycle. [PDF]
Many terrestrial and marine species have a diel activity pattern, and their acoustic signaling follows their current behavioral state. Whistles and echolocation clicks on long-term recordings produced by melon-headed whales (Peponocephala electra) at ...

Seismic Attenuation Extraction From Traffic Signals Recorded by a Single Seismic Station
Seismic ambient noise contains rich information about the physical properties of the critical zone. From the motor vehicle noise, we extract the daily seismic attenuation by quantifying the linear relationship between the frequency and amplitude ratio of

Rainfall-induced variations in pore water pressures are the most common sources of significant disasters like landslides, dams’ failure, and other structural collapses. This study aimed at communicating preliminary results of seasonal monitoring of the Sobradinho landslide, Brasilia, Brazil, using ambient seismic noise.

Fault detection by reflected surface waves based on ambient noise interferometry
Detecting subsurface fault structure is important for evaluating potential earthquake risks associated with active faults. In this study, we propose a new method to detect faults using reflected surface waves observed in ambient noise cross correlation ...

ADVANCING ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE POLLUTION ANALYSIS IN URBAN AREAS BY CONSIDERING THE VARIATION OF POPULATION EXPOSURE IN SPACE AND TIME [PDF]
Ambient noise is a subtle form of pollution in large urban areas, degrading human health and well-being. In Europe, directives require that urban environmental noise be measured and mapped for the main periods of the daily cycle.

Is ambient noise tomography across ocean basins possible? [PDF]
International audienceBased on year-long cross-correlations of broad-band seismic records obtained at sixty-six stations within or adjacent to the Pacific Basin, we show that broad-band ambient noise is observed to propagate coherently between island ...
