Chronic playback of boat noise does not impact hatching success or post-hatching larval growth and survival in a cichlid fish [PDF]
Anthropogenic (man-made) noise has been shown to have a negative impact on the behaviour and physiology of a range of terrestrial and aquatic animals. However, direct assessments of fitness consequences are rare.

Are torpid bats immune to anthropogenic noise? [PDF]
Summary Anthropogenic noise has a negative impact on a variety of animals. However, many bat species roost in places with high levels of anthropogenic noise. Here we test the hypothesis that torpid bats are insensitive to anthropogenic noise.

Anthropogenic Noise as a Stressor in Animals: A Multidisciplinary Perspective
This paper could not have been written without the financial and organizational support from Dieter Paulmann and Jo Hastie respectively. Thanks are also due to 2 anonymous reviewers, whose comments on an earlier version of the manuscript greatly improved the paper.

Anthropogenic noise: potential influences on wildlife and applications to cannabis cultivation
Biological sounds play an important role in activities ranging from territory defense to mate choice to predator avoidance to foraging. Anthropogenic noise can mask these sounds, potentially altering the habitat selection, activity patterns, phenology ...

Assessing auditory masking for management of underwater anthropogenic noise [PDF]
Masking is often assessed by quantifying changes, due to increasing noise, to an animal's communication or listening range. While the methods used to measure communication or listening ranges are functionally similar if used for vocalizations, they differ in their approaches: communication range is focused on the sender's call, while the listening ...

The population of beluga whales in Cook Inlet, Alaska, USA, declined by nearly half in the mid-1990s, primarily from an unsustainable harvest, and was listed as endangered in 2008.

Seal Bomb Noise as a Potential Threat to Monterey Bay Harbor Porpoise
Anthropogenic noise is a known threat to marine mammals. Decades of research have shown that harbor porpoises are particularly sensitive to anthropogenic noise, and geographic displacement is a common impact from noise exposure.

Artificial Light at Night Drives Earlier Singing in a Neotropical Bird
Anthropogenic noise and artificial light at night (ALAN) can disrupt the morning singing routines of urban birds, however, its influence on tropical species remains poorly explored.

Anomalous reduction in the level of seismic noise in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in April 2020
Estimation of the influence of anthropogenic factors on the seismic signal is an important problem in ensuring the quality of seismological data and, accordingly, the quality of scientific research.

Anthropogenic noise compromises antipredator behaviour in European eels [PDF]
AbstractIncreases in noise‐generating human activities since the Industrial Revolution have changed the acoustic landscape of many terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Anthropogenic noise is now recognized as a major pollutant of international concern, and recent studies have demonstrated impacts on, for instance, hearing thresholds, communication ...
