Underwater noise mitigation in the Santa Barbara Channel through incentive-based vessel speed reduction
Abstract Commercial shipping is the dominant source of low-frequency noise in the ocean. It has been shown that the noise radiated by an individual vessel depends upon the vessel’s speed. This study quantified the reduction in source levels (SLs) and sound exposure levels (SELs) for ships participat...
