Seiche Training is pleased to announce two underwater acoustics courses in March 2015:
UNDERWATER ACOUSTICS IN THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT 23 - 26th March 2015 University of Southampton, UK in association with the University of Bath Our 4 day course equips delegates with a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals of underwater acoustics. It then focuses on developing clear, quantitative understanding of the issues involved in the impact of acoustics on marine wildlife. The following topics are covered: ocean environments, noise propagation models, sound field modelling, methods of assessment, impacts of noise on marine life, mitigation, environmental regulations and Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), fisheries, JNCC guidelines, emerging studies and technologies acrossthis field, the physical drivers of noise and seismic sources, vessel-radiated noise, shallow water measurements, marine seismic imaging, marine seismic sources and marine seismic data processing. The course is delivered by leading research professors and experts in their field including Dr Paul Lepper, Dr Philippe Blondel, Dr Paul Fernandes and Professor Victor Humphrey It will be particularly useful in providing a better understanding of reports that delegates either have to deliver or receive from clients. Who is it for? Regulators, environmental consultants and policy/environmental professionals within industry This course has been granted official CPD recognition by IMarEST, the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology UNDERWATER ACOUSTICS FOR OIL, GAS AND DEFENCE 23 - 27th March 2015 University of Southampton, UK in association with the University of Bath This 5 day intensive course in underwater acoustics is delivered by leading research professors primarily for engineers and scientists from the oil, gas and defence industries. The first 3 days cover the principles of underwater acoustics, providing delegates with an in-depth knowledge of the mechanisms of sound propagation in the ocean, the impact of noise and reverberation produced by the ocean environment and the basic structure and performance of acoustic instruments. This is followed by 2 days of advanced modules on underwater sound sources with emphasis on sonar, its application and measurement, calculations in shelf sea waters, seismic imaging, seismic sources and seismic data. Delegates are required to have a good grounding in Maths, Engineering or Science. This course has been granted official CPD recognition by IMarEST, the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology For more info and details, please visit www.seiche.com training course section or contact Sarah Hancock on [email protected]
