Underwater Acoustics in the Marine Environment Training Course (Classroom) Date: 01-04th September Location: Okehampton Devon UK Cost: £1950 + vat As concern about the impact of underwater noise on marine wildlife increases, regulations to protect marine wildlife become more rigorous. for those working in and around the marine environment and marine mammal research and conservation. It is essential to understand the basic concepts of underwater acoustics and how noise can impact marine wildlife. This four-day Marine Acoustics uses a mixture of lectures and hands-on learning to explore the ocean environment. and explain the models that are used to measure underwater acoustics. Delegates will then investigate what can be done to mitigate underwater noise before getting to grips with environmental regulations, Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), guidelines, emerging studies, and technologies in the Marine Acoustics field. UAME training course gives you the knowhow to get to grips with underwater acoustics and understand the noise issues that impact marine wildlife. Modules you will cover on this training course. * Introduction to Acoustics and Underwater Acoustics * Key Quantities, Units and Dimensions * Powers and Logs * Decibels and Use of Decibels * Reflection and Transmission at Boundaries * Ocean Environments - the Seas * More on Decibels * Spectra and Sound Sources * Noise and Reverberation * Hydrophones * Man Made noise in the Ocean * Biological Sources of Sound * Hearing response of Marine Wildlife * Impacts of noise on Marine Wildlife * Sound field Modelling * Methods of Assessment of Impacts * Environmental regulation and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) * Introduction to the Soundscape * Noise Measurements * Vessel radiated noise * Marine Seismic Assessment * Mitigation and the Effects of Sound on Marine Wildlife * Emerging Studies Delivered by leading research experts including Dr Paul Lepper and Professor Victor Humphrey. 5% student discount (proof will be required) To book and more information email training@seiche.com<mailto:training@seiche.com> Zoe Wright Marketing & Training Communications Officer Seiche Ltd E: z.wright@seiche.com W: https://www.seiche.com Bradworthy Industrial Estate, Langdon Road, Bradworthy, Holsworthy, Devon, EX22 7SF, United Kingdom Seiche Ltd is registered in England & Wales.
