and heats the stratosphere. Thus changes in the atmospheric circulation and in the emission of anthropogenic substances that affect the abundance of ozone in the atmosphere have direct effects on the global

acoustic environment and marine mammal ecology? How can we best minimize potential impacts of anthropogenic noise on marine mammals? Our focus: We explore the distribution and behavior of whales and seals
and classification tasks in marine passive acoustic data, both for biological sounds as well as anthropogenic sounds. www.researchgate.net/profile/Elena_Schall Dr. Ilse van Opzeeland I see sound as an invaluable [...] marine mammal diversity via their acoustic behavior. I am particularly interested in the impact of anthropogenic noise on polar ocean soundscapes and its impact on the soundscape and (acoustic) ecology of marine

Natural abiotic ('geophonic') sounds include sound produced by wind, waves and ice movement [...] space and how does it relate to other environmental and ecological factors? How do natural and anthropogenic sounds contribute to the overall acoustic environment of an area? Which role does the character
