2010
Pay-walled Peer Reviewed Publication

Marine Pollution Bulletin

Bailey, H., Senior, B., Simmons, D., Rusin, J., Picken, G. and Thompson, P. M

Marine renewable developments have raised concerns over impacts of underwater noise on marine species, particularly from pile-driving for wind turbines. Environmental assessments typically use generic sound...

Stochastic dynamic programming: An approach for modelling the population consequences of disturbance due to lost foraging opportunities

2016
Open Access Peer Reviewed Publication

Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics

Schwarz, L. K., E. McHuron, M. Mangel, R. S. Wells, and D. P. Costa.

Since the introduction of the population consequences of disturbance (PCoD) conceptual model, lost energy has become a central component of modelling biologically meaningful disturbance. Long-term datasets...
