Many marine mammals communicate by emitting sounds that pass
through water. Such sounds can be received across great distances
and can influence the behavior of these undersea creatures. In the
past few decades, the oceans have become increasingly noisy, as
underwater sounds from propellers, sonars, and other human
activities make it difficult for marine mammals to communicate.
This book discusses, among many other topics, just how well marine
mammals hear, how noisy the oceans have become, and what effects
these new sounds have on marine mammals. The baseline of ambient
noise, the sounds produced by machines and mammals, the sensitivity
of marine mammal hearing, and the reactions of marine mammals are
also examined.
An essential addition to any marine biologist's library, Marine
Mammals and Noise will be especially appealing to marine
mammalogists, researchers, policy makers and regulators, and marine
biologists and oceanographers using sound in their research.
