Suppression Of underwater Noise Induced by Cavitation (SONIC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

The aim of the SONIC project is to develop tools to investigate and mitigate the effects of underwater noise generated by shipping, both in terms of the footprint of an individual ship (a “noise footprint”) and of the spatial distribution of sound from a large number of ships contribution to the sound (a “noise map”). The project`s first objective is to enhance the understanding of noise generated ...
