Anthropogenic noise may impair the mating behaviour of the Shore Crab Carcinus Maenas. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2022 Anthropogenic noise is a recent addition to the list of human-made threats to the environment, with potential and established negative impacts on a wide range of animals. Despite their economic and ecological significance, few studies have considered the

Experience modulates an insect's response to anthropogenic noise. [PDF]
Behav Ecol, 2020 AbstractIn response to anthropogenic noise, vertebrates express modified acoustic communication signals either through individual plasticity or local population adaptation. In contrast, how insects respond to this stressor is poorly studied. Field crickets Gryllus bimaculatus use acoustic signals to attract and locate mates and are commonly found in ...

Blue whales respond to anthropogenic noise. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Anthropogenic noise may significantly impact exposed marine mammals. This work studied the vocalization response of endangered blue whales to anthropogenic noise sources in the mid-frequency range using passive acoustic monitoring in the Southern ...

The effects of anthropogenic noise on animals: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
Biol Lett, 2019 Anthropogenic noise has become a major global pollutant and studies have shown that noise can affect animals. However, such single studies cannot provide holistic quantitative assessments on the potential effects of noise across species. Using a multi-level phylogenetically controlled meta-analysis, we provide the first holistic quantitative analysis ...

Anthropogenic noise increases fish mortality by predation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Little evidence exists on whether human-generated noise directly affects survival of wildlife. Here, Simpson et al. show that damselfish exposed to motorboat noise have elevated metabolic rates, reduced responses to predatory attacks, and suffer ...

The impact of anthropogenic noise on individual identification via female song in Black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 When anthropogenic noise occurs simultaneously with an acoustic signal or cue, it can be difficult for an animal to interpret the information encoded within vocalizations.

A Quieter Ocean: Experimentally Derived Differences in Attentive Responses of Tursiops truncatus to Anthropogenic Noise Playbacks before and during the COVID-19-Related Anthropause [PDF]
Animals, 2023 The effects of anthropogenic noise continue to threaten marine fauna, yet the impacts of human-produced sound on the broad aspects of cognition in marine mammals remain relatively understudied. The shutdown of non-essential activities due to the COVID-19-

Anthropogenic noise and the bioacoustics of terrestrial invertebrates [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019 ABSTRACTAnthropogenic noise is an important issue of environmental concern owing to its wide-ranging effects on the physiology, behavior and ecology of animals. To date, research has focused on the impacts of far-field airborne noise (i.e. pressure waves) on vertebrates, with few exceptions. However, invertebrates and the other acoustic modalities they

Anthropogenic Noise Aggravates the Toxicity of Cadmium on Some Physiological Characteristics of the Blood Clam Tegillarca granosa [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Widespread applications of cadmium (Cd) in various products have caused Cd contamination in marine ecosystems. Meanwhile, human activities in the ocean have also generated an increasing amount of noise in recent decades.
