Working Group on the Effects of Sound on Fish and Turtles

[6646191 . popper]该奖项授予莫特海洋实验室，为科学参与者提供旅费和研讨会费用，以审查有关声音对鱼类和海龟影响的文献和数据。海洋环境中的人为声音问题已成为国内外监管部门和公众关注的一个重大问题，但可用于就实际影响作出知情决定的科学信息相当有限。在国家海洋和大气管理局和海军研究办公室的单独支持下，这里在两年的时间里为六个讲习班提供了支持，专家们将在这些讲习班上综合有关该主题的现有信息，并评估它们在制定基于科学的监管框架方面的适用性。更广泛的影响：在此提供的支持将有助于评估自然和人为声音对海洋鱼类和海龟的潜在影响。许多人类活动，包括科学研究，有意或无意地将声音引入海洋环境，对这种对生物影响的性质有一个清楚的了解，是我们根据现有的最佳科学适当评估潜在环境影响的一个重要因素

0646191Popper This award to Mote Marine Laboratory provides support for scientific participant travel and expenses for workshops to review literature and data related to the impacts of sound on fishes and turtles. The topic of anthropogenic sound in the marine environment has become an issue of significant regulatory and public concern, both domestically and internationally, but the scientific information available to make informed decisions regarding actual impacts is quite limited. In conjunction with separate support from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Office of Naval Research, support is provided here for six workshops over two years in which experts will synthesize existing information on the topic and assess their applicability for use in developing a science-based regulatory framework. Broader Impacts: Support provided here will improve efforts to assess potential impacts of natural and anthropogenic sounds on marine fishes and turtles. Many human activities, including scientific research, introduce sound into the marine environment intentionally or incidentally, and a clear understanding of the nature of such impacts on organisms is an important element in our effort to properly assess potential environmental impacts based on the best available science.***
