Within the set of risk factors that compromise the conservation of marine biodiversity, one of
the least understood concerns is the noise produced by human operations at sea and from …

This paper considers the importance of particle motion to fishes and invertebrates and the
steps that need to be taken to improve knowledge of its effects. It is aimed at scientists …

Finding effective ways to direct native fish away from anthropogenic hazards and limit the
spread of invasive species, without physical intervention, harming non-target fishes or …

Locating sound sources such as prey or predators is critical for survival in many vertebrates.
Terrestrial vertebrates locate sources by measuring the time delay and intensity difference of …

There are substantial knowledge gaps regarding both the bioacoustics and the responses of
animals to sounds associated with pre-construction, construction, and operations of offshore …

In marine invertebrates, abiotic stresses on adults can act directly on gametes quality, which
impacts phenotype and development success of the offspring. Human activities introduce …

The problem: All sound comprises fluctuations in pressure and particle motion (PM) and all
fishes and many aquatic invertebrates detect PM. Noise is unwanted or harmful sound, and …

Coral reef soundscapes are increasingly studied for their ecological uses by invertebrates
and fishes, for monitoring habitat quality, and to investigate effects of anthropogenic noise …

Zebrafish, like all fish species, use sound to learn about their environment. Thus, human-
generated (anthropogenic) sound added to the environment has the potential to disrupt the …

Underwater sound fields can be complex, both in open water and small tank environments.
Here we measured 1) spatial variation in artificially elevated sound levels in a small fish tank …
