Seiche Training is pleased to announce two underwater acoustics courses in March 2015:
UNDERWATER ACOUSTICS IN THE MARINE
ENVIRONMENT
23 -
26th March 2015
University
of Southampton, UK
in
association with the University of Bath
Our 4
day course equips delegates with a thorough knowledge of the
fundamentals
of underwater acoustics. It then focuses on developing
clear,
quantitative understanding of the issues involved in the impact
of
acoustics on marine wildlife. The following topics are covered:
ocean
environments, noise propagation models, sound field modelling, methods
of assessment, impacts of noise on marine life, mitigation, environmental
regulations and Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), fisheries,
JNCC guidelines, emerging studies and technologies acrossthis
field, the physical drivers of noise and seismic sources, vessel-radiated
noise, shallow water measurements, marine seismic imaging,
marine seismic sources and marine seismic data processing.
The
course is delivered by leading research professors and experts in
their
field including Dr Paul Lepper, Dr Philippe Blondel, Dr Paul
Fernandes
and Professor Victor Humphrey
It
will be particularly useful in providing a better understanding of
reports
that delegates either have to deliver or receive from clients.
Who is
it for?
Regulators,
environmental consultants and policy/environmental
professionals
within industry
This
course has been granted official CPD recognition by IMarEST, the
Institute
of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology
UNDERWATER ACOUSTICS FOR OIL, GAS AND DEFENCE
23 - 27th March 2015
University
of Southampton, UK
in
association with the University of Bath
This 5 day intensive course in underwater acoustics is delivered by leading research professors primarily for engineers and scientists from the oil, gas and defence industries.
The first 3 days cover the principles of underwater acoustics, providing delegates with an in-depth knowledge of the mechanisms of sound propagation in the ocean, the impact of noise and reverberation produced by the ocean environment and the basic structure and performance of acoustic instruments. This is followed by 2 days of advanced modules on underwater sound sources with emphasis on sonar, its application and measurement, calculations in shelf sea waters, seismic imaging, seismic sources and seismic data.
Delegates are required to have a good grounding in Maths, Engineering or Science.
This course has been granted official
CPD recognition by IMarEST, the
Institute
of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology
