Biological sounds, meteorological or geological sounds, and anthropogenic sounds exist in the ocean.
Nowadays, various anthropogenic sound sources such as shipping, pile driving, survey of deep-sea mining are potential concerns for negative effects on marine organisms. On the other hand, sound is an indispensable tool to explore fish shoals, seabed maps, and observation of global warming in the ocean.
In this forum, ocean acoustics experts from Europe, the U.S. and Asia will make presentations regarding current ocean noise issues and related guidance, and discuss potential ways forward for the sustainable use of the ocean as well as mitigating ocean noise. After the event, there will be time for free discussion with each panelist so that those participating in-person can communicate with them directly at the venue.
