Fishes use a variety of sensory systems to learn about their environments and to
communicate. Of the various senses, hearing plays a particularly important role for fishes in …

Marine seismic surveys produce high intensity, low-frequency impulsive sounds at regular
intervals, with most sound produced between 10 and 300 Hz. Offshore seismic surveys have …

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 …

Sound waves in water have both a pressure and a particle‐motion component, yet few
studies of underwater acoustic ecology have measured the particle‐motion component of …

The expansion of shipping and aquatic industrial activities in recent years has led to growing
concern about the effects of man-made sounds on aquatic life. Sources include (but are not …

Human activities in and around waters generate a substantial amount of underwater noise,
which may negatively affect aquatic life including fish. In order to better predict and assess …

Underwater noise from human activities appears to be rising, with ramifications for
acoustically sensitive marine organisms and the functioning of marine ecosystems …

Pile-driving and other impulsive sound sources have the potential to injure or kill fishes. One
mechanism that produces injuries is the rapid motion of the walls of the swim bladder as it …
