Abstract:
Object and purpose of research. Ensuring the environmental safety of the Russian shelf waters requires constant development of methods and technologies related to monitoring, quantitative assessment and reduction of the harmful effects of pollution sources. During the industrial and transport development of the water area of the Northern Sea Route (NSR), an intensive increase of underwater noise is observed. Obtaining an adequate picture of the impact of underwater noise sources on representatives of the marine ecosystem creates a need to involve more and more modern and accurate measurement t

Coral reefs are coastal resources and very useful for marine ecosystems. Nowadays, the existence of coral reefs is seriously threatened due to the activities of blast fishing, coral mining, marine sedimentation, pollution, and global climate change. To determine the existence of coral reefs, it is necessary to study them comprehensively. One method to study a coral reef by using a propagation of sound waves is proposed. In this research, the measurement of reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, acoustic backscattering, hardness, and roughness of coral reefs has been conducted using

Field measurements revealed that AHD signals were detectable up to 4.2 km away.

Abstract:
Anthropogenic underwater noise is an increasing form of pollution that negatively affects biota. The effect of this pollutant on many marine species is still largely unknown, especially those that are more sensitive to particle motion than to sound pressure. In these cases, experiments at sea are necessary, due to the difficulty of recreating the particle movement of a real acoustic field under laboratory conditions. This work aims to contribute to the knowledge of the effect of ship noise on the behaviour of mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis), performing measurements at sea on a real mussel

Abstract:
AbstractUnderwater detonations have the potential for serious injury in marine vertebrates such as fishes, reptiles, birds and mammals. The high detonation velocity creates a shock wave. The main reason for injury is the extremely short signal rise time combined with a high overpressure. A negative pressure phase generating cavitation shortly after the peak overpressure can increase organ and tissue damage. Due to surface reflection generating a reversed phase replica of the detonation, this phenomenon is very pronounced in shallow waters. Organs most seriously affected by detonations are thos

Abstract:
Economic globalization and the continuous search for food, energy and raw materials led to an estimated 3 dB/decade increase of ocean noise intensity. Determining the level of anthropogenic noise, the so-called excess noise, and building identifiable meaningful indicators for supporting marine management policies currently requires extensive observation data and computer modeling. For modeling purposes, in this study, anthropogenic noise was reduced to shipping traffic drawn from Automatic Identification System data, and environmental sound was attributed to surface wind only.

Abstract:
Marine vessel traffic is a significant source of anthropogenic noise pollution and a major source of disturbance for many marine species. Despite Seal Rocks (Victoria, Australia) being the largest Australian fur seal breeding colony, and subject to a high volume of visitation, particularly during the breeding season, there has been no long-term effort to monitor visitation and its potential impact on seals. Autonomous passive acoustic recorders were deployed at Seal Rocks to monitor vessel visitation during both low visitation (off-peak) and the breeding (peak) season. Proportion of time vesse

Abstract:
In a global context of limiting the impact of noise pollution on the behavior of marine fauna, the understanding of acoustic radiation phenomena from underwater sound sources of a passenger ship is of primary importance. Although diesel engines and propellers are considered to be ones of the main sources of ship noise, our observations have shown that immersed motors contribute significantly to the noise radiated into the water by passenger ships at low speeds. This contribution summarizes a semi-empirical method for estimating the noise radiated into the water from an azimuth thruster-type st

Abstract:
Understanding the movements of species, particularly those that may exert strong influence on community structure or that may be susceptible to human perturbations, is critical to effectively conserve and manage populations. However, the study of movement behavior in marine fishes has been historically difficult and typically produces a limited amount of data (i.e., start and end points). We use an array of automated acoustic receivers to monitor autumn and winter movement patterns of sixgill sharks ( Hexanchus griseus (Bonnaterre, 1788)) in Puget Sound, Washington, USA.

Microplastic pollution poses a critical threat to aquatic ecosystems, especially marine ecosystems along with freshwater ecosystems, as these infiltrate food chains and disrupt aquatic life. Despite ongoing efforts to mitigate this issue, the complexity of microplastic detection and filtration in underwater environments presents several challenges, including the limitations of current filtration technologies and the lack of efficient, low-cost identification systems.
