The impacts of anthropogenic ocean noise on cetaceans and implications for management
LS Weilgart - Canadian journal of zoology, 2007 - cdnsciencepub.com
Ocean noise pollution is of special concern for cetaceans, as they are highly dependent on
sound as their principal sense. Sound travels very efficiently underwater, so the potential …

Noise-induced hearing loss in marine mammals: A review of temporary threshold shift studies from 1996 to 2015
JJ Finneran - The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2015 - pubs.aip.org
One of the most widely recognized effects of intense noise exposure is a noise-induced
threshold shift—an elevation of hearing thresholds following cessation of the noise. Over the …

Wind turbine underwater noise and marine mammals: implications of current knowledge and data needs
The demand for renewable energy has led to construction of offshore wind farms with high-
power turbines, and many more wind farms are being planned for the shallow waters of the …

Brain mechanisms of acoustic communication in humans and nonhuman primates: an evolutionary perspective
Any account of “what is special about the human brain”(Passingham 2008) must specify the
neural basis of our unique ability to produce speech and delineate how these remarkable …

Temporary shift in masked hearing thresholds in a harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) after exposure to seismic airgun stimuli
An auditory study was conducted to derive data on temporary threshold shift (TTS) induced
by single impulses. This information should serve as basis for the definition of noise …
