Fish sounds and anthropogenic noise
Leiden researchers have published an important literature review in Trends of Ecology and Evolution (TREE), one of the leading journals in the field. In the review, they call for attention for the role of underwater sound in the life of fishes and the potentially negative impact of anthropogenic noise.
The paper was spearheaded by IBL-researcher Hans Slabbekoorn, in collaboration with Dutch researchers affiliated with institutes in the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium, and with one of the early pioneers in underwater acoustics and fish hearing: Prof. Arthur Popper from the University of Maryland, USA.
