Anthropogenic Noise and Physiological Stress in Wildlife
2016The ecological impacts of increasing levels of anthropogenic noise in marine and freshwater systems are of growing public interest. Recent emphasis on the physiological approaches to identifying the impacts of noise has led to increased recognition that anthropogenic noise is an environmental stressor.

Life history consequences of developing in anthropogenic noise
Global Change Biology, 2019AbstractWhen environments change rapidly, adaptive phenotypic plasticity can ameliorate negative effects of environmental change on survival and reproduction. Recent evidence suggests, however, that plastic responses to human‐induced environmental change are often maladaptive or insufficient to overcome novel selection pressures. Anthropogenic noise is

Birdsong and anthropogenic noise: implications and applications for conservation
Molecular Ecology, 2007AbstractThe dramatic increase in human activities all over the world has caused, on an evolutionary time scale, a sudden rise in especially low‐pitched noise levels. Ambient noise may be detrimental to birds through direct stress, masking of predator arrival or associated alarm calls, and by interference of acoustic signals in general.

Is anthropogenic ambient noise in the ocean increasing?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2002It is commonly accepted that the ocean’s ambient noise levels are rising due to increased human activities in coastal and offshore areas. It has been estimated that low-frequency noise levels increased more than 10 dB in many parts of the world between 1950 and 1975. [Ross, Acoustics Bulletin, Jan/Feb (1993)].

Predicting Anthropogenic Noise Contributions to US Waters
2016To increase understanding of the potential effects of chronic underwater noise in US waters, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) organized two working groups in 2011, collectively called "CetSound," to develop tools to map the density and distribution of cetaceans (CetMap) and predict the contribution of human activities to ...

The impact of anthropogenic noise on wetland habitats
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2015Impacts of anthropogenic noise is an important but poorly studied aspect of wetland ecology. Many aquatic animals use sound to attract mates, coordinate movements, defend territory, and detect predators. However, anthropogenic noise (e.g., from boat or automobile motors) are increasingly important in wetlands.

Anthropogenic noise: Is this an issue for elasmobranch fishes?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2010Underwater anthropogenic noise has developed into a major national and international issue since it is becoming more apparent that human activities can have an adverse effect on the survival of fish stocks. It is unclear, however, whether human-generated noise in the aquatic environment could have an effect on the health and behavior of elasmobranch ...

Effects of Anthropogenic Noise on Amphibians and Reptiles
2018Anurans are highly vocal species that rely on acoustic communication for social behaviors. The advertisement (mating) calls of many anurans contain considerable energy within the predominant spectral range of traffic and other anthropogenic-noise sources.

Masking Experiments in Humans and Birds Using Anthropogenic Noises
2016This study investigated the masking of pure tones by anthropogenic noises in humans and birds. Bird experiments were conducted in the laboratory using operant conditioning and psychophysical procedures but with anthropogenic noises rather than white noise.
