The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life

The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life is a conference that takes place once every three years. It was held for the first time in Nyborg, Denmark in 2007. The second and third meetings were in Cork,[1] Ireland (2010) and Budapest,[2] Hungary (2013). The fourth meeting took place in Dublin, Ireland, in July 2016.[3] The 2007 meeting in Nyborg was the first scientific conference to include in its scope the effects of noise on both fish and marine mammals.[4] The third and fourth conferences were each followed by a one-day workshop, respectively the Workshop on International Harmonisation of Approaches to Define Underwater Noise Exposure Criteria and the International Airgun Modelling Workshop: Validation of Source Signature and Sound Propagation Models. A fifth conference is planned for 2019.
