Simulated 3D propagation modelling of noise from a transiting Vessel. The modelling is performed using the program AMPLE, which is based on the wide-angle mode parabolic...

The potential for exploiting oceanic vessel noise as a sound source of opportunity to estimate ocean sound speed profile is investigated using dataset consisting of automatic...

Broadband noise emissions exhibit frequency bands where acoustic energy is greater than kinetic., the inverse is true for neighbouring frequency bands. This is characteristic of interference...

Mapping of acoustic signature of small (<25m) research vessels. Radiated noise levels (RNLs) and environment-affected source levels (ASLs) determined by linear regression were estimated for each...

Cetaceans rely critically on sound for navigation, foraging and communication and are therefore potentially affected by increasing noise levels from human activities at sea. Shipping is...

The power of modern research vessels using diesel engines means significant levels of noise may be radiated underwater. At low frequencies a surveying vessel must not...

Shipping is the dominant marine anthropogenic noise source in the world’s oceans, yet we know little about vessel encounter rates, exposure levels and behavioural reactions for...
