Dear Colleagues, This is a reminder about the call for manuscripts for the 3rd Special Issue on the Effects of Sound in the Ocean on Marine Mammals (ESOMM 2024). This special issue is open to all interested colleagues, not only participants at the symposium in September 2024. The focus of the September ESOMM-2024 meeting was to link science to policy and regulation with a combined representation of research, policy, and regulatory communities in presentations. The goal was to facilitate and reinforce this multi-stakeholder interaction. Originating as a NATO meeting, the historical focus for ESOMM was the environmental effects of (military) sonar sound; but over the years other sound sources have increasingly been considered as well. Exchange of knowledge was encouraged between different communities and industries on other (impulsive) sound sources, such as underwater explosions, air-guns, and pile-driving sound. These are the topics for the special issue content. This Special Issue is scheduled for September 2025 publication, with real-time publication of accepted articles before the deadline. Related deadlines and details are below. The first two manuscript submission deadlines have passed. The last submission deadline is 15 April 2025 for Aquatic Mammals journal to receive manuscripts to be considered for this special issue. Please submit your manuscript, cover letter, and any additional files through the Aquatic Mammals journal fast track system: http://am.expressacademic.org/actions/author.php EnerGeo Alliance has graciously agreed to sponsor this ESOMM Special Issue in Aquatic Mammals and to make the issue and all articles available as Open Access.
