Показать описание
Ex Situ is Operation Wallacea's virtual lecture series highlighting the work of some of the amazing scientists and naturalists that we've been involved with over the last 25 years.

Our next edition of Ex Situ features Kieran McCloskey, a PhD student at the University of Exeter studying the impact of marine noise on fish reproduction and populations. In his lecture, Underwater Acoustics and Noise Pollution, Kieran will discuss how man-made sounds can have a detrimental effect on marine life and how he is quantifying this outcome through animals’ reproductive output.

I really appreciate the presentation, Kieran - especially the applied nature of your research. I'm curious to know if the same eco-acoustic principles you discussed, and specifically potential noise impacts to fish, exist in the freshwater environment. Is underwater sound affected by salinity, and if so, how?
Thanks again,
Jamie
