The recording from our Webinar on 'International Standardization in Underwater Acoustics' hosted by UCC is now available online!

Learn more about how we are using these technologies to support the SATURN project's aims and objectives, and support marine fauna in the following video!

The purpose of this terminology standard is to facilitate effective communication, especially inter-disciplinary communication, between physicists, biologists, and end users.

This policy brief identifies the need for the adoption of standardized bioacoustical terminology in the field of of underwater radiated noise.
