Harbour porpoise echolocation activity within and outside of the FORCE tidal turbine demonstration area in Minas Passage of the upper Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, has been monitored by up…
Using passive acoustic monitoring to investigate the occurrence of cetaceans in a protected marine area in northwest Ireland
Todd, Nicole R. E.; Cronin, Michelle; Luck, Cian; Bennison, Ashley; Jessopp, Mark; Kavanagh, Ailbhe S.
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science (2020)
Under the EU Habitats Directive, cetacean species must be maintained at favourable conservation status in European waters. Whether this is achieved via protected area designation, curtailment of activities such as…

Han, Yong; Sun, Zhiyu; Fang, Hongwei; Bai, Sen; Huang, Lei; He, Guojian
Ecological Modelling (2020)
Poyang Lake, located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, is the largest freshwater lake in China and the most important habitat for the Yangtze finless porpoise.…
Effects of multiple exposures to pile driving noise on harbor porpoise hearing during simulated flights—An evaluation tool
Schaffeld, Tobias; Schnitzler, Joseph G.; Ruser, Andreas; Woelfing, Benno; Baltzer, Johannes; Siebert, Ursula
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America (2020)
Exploitation of renewable energy from offshore wind farms is substantially increasing worldwide. The majority of wind turbines are bottom mounted, causing high levels of impulsive noise during construction. To prevent…
Acoustic ecology of harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) between two U.S. offshore wind energy areas
Holdman, A. K.; Tregenza, N.; Van Parijs, S. M.; DeAngelis, A. I.
ICES Journal of Marine Science (2023)
Offshore wind energy is set to develop rapidly in waters off the east coast of the United States. There is considerable overlap between areas proposed for offshore wind development and…
