Measuring acoustic habitats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
NDM was part-funded by an EPSRC Doctoral Training Award (No. EP/P505399/1). MPJ and PLT were supported by Marine Alliance for Science and Technology Scotland (MASTS) and MPJ by a Marie Curie CIG Award.Many organisms depend on sound for communication ...

Effect on Ocean Noise: Nyepi, a Balinese Day of Silence

open access: yesOceanography, 2018
Taking advantage of a religious holiday called Nyepi that curtailed human activities for one day, we recorded acoustic noise levels for one week in shallow waters of a little-trafficked area west of Bali below the Denpasar airport flight path (Figure 1).

Impact of anthropogenic noise on the survival and development of meagre (Argyrosomus regius) early life stages

open access: yes, 2023
We are grateful to IPMA-EPPO for the test subjects. We also thank Joaquim Tapisso for the assistance in the bioterium and Marta Bolgan for helping with the preliminary work.

First observations of anthropogenic underwater noise in a large multi-use lake

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2016
Over the last fifty years, anthropogenic noise has increased dramatically in aquatic environments and is now recognised as a chronic form of pollution in coastal waters.

Determining the directionality of anthropogenic noise using an underwater acoustic vector sensor: a case study in a Norwegian fjord

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2023
Sources of anthropogenic noise in the ocean have temporal and directional characteristics. Characterizing the soundscape requires identifying the directionality of the sources of noise in addition to the non-directional sound pressure.

Grey seals use anthropogenic signals from acoustic tags to locate fish: evidence from a simulated foraging task

open access: yes, 2014
Anthropogenic noise can have negative effects on animal behaviour and physiology. However, noise is often introduced systematically and potentially provides information for navigation or prey detection.

Boat noise impacts Lusitanian toadfish breeding males and reproductive outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Anthropogenic noise is a growing threat to marine organisms, including fish. Yet very few studies have addressed the impact of anthropogenic noise on fish reproduction, especially in situ.

How chronic anthropogenic noise can affect wildlife communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Anthropogenic noise is a major pollutant in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Since the industrial revolution, human activities have become increasingly noisy, leading to both acute and chronic disturbance of a wide variety of animals.

Structural and acoustic properties of urbanized landscapes adversely affect bird communities in a tropical environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionThe rural-urban gradient serves as a valuable context for investigating the impact of urbanization on biodiversity. While previous studies have demonstrated shifts in bird communities along this gradient, our understanding of the specific ...
