This topic is linked to the science within the EMB Future Science Brief No. 17 'Addressing underwater noise in Europe: Current state of knowledge and future priorities'.
Peter Tyack is Professor of Marine Mammal Biology at the University of St Andrews and Emeritus Research Scholar at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. He is co-chair of the Scientific Committee of the International Quiet Ocean Experiment and chair of its Ocean Sound EOV Implementation Committee. His basic research focuses on marine bioacoustics, especially acoustic communication and social behavior in marine mammals. This led him to understand that anthropogenic underwater sound can be a stressor for marine life, to develop tags that record acoustic exposure and behavioral responses, and to develop experimental designs to study the effects of sound on wildlife.
