*REGISTRATION IS CLOSING 5TH JUNE* for Seiche International Underwater Acoustics in the Marine Environment 3 day course June 22-24 Houston, USA
This 3 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. *Course Modules* Introduction to Acoustics & Underwater Acoustics Key Quantities, Units & Dimensions Decibels Reflection & Transmission at Boundaries Ocean Environments – The Seas Man-Made Noise in the Ocean Hearing Response of Marine Wildlife Biological Sources of Sound Impacts of Noise on Marine Life Sound Field Modelling Methods of Assessment of Impacts Environmental Stream Tutorial Environmental Regulation & Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Explosive & Impulsive Sources Mitigation of the Effects of Sound of Marine Wildlife Emerging Studies Introduction to Environmental & Man Made Noise in the Ocean Marine Seismic Sources Introduction to Marine Seismic Imaging Seismic Data Processing & Modelling Vessel Radiated Noise Noise Measurement – Shallow Water The Fundamentals of Sonar Dr Paul Lepper will lead this Underwater Acoustics in the Marine Environment course. Paul specializes in underwater acoustics, bioacoustics and underwater technologies, including acoustic and optical underwater systems, sound field measurement, modelling and simulation. He has been working on assessing hearing abilities of marine mammals, the acoustic impact of noise on marine fauna, assessing noise from small leisure craft, offshore windfarm developments and petroleum platforms, the use of deterrents, systems for long-term noise field assessment and passive detection of marine species and the use of various propagation models for sound field assessment. *Who is it for?* Regulators, environmental consultants and policy/environmental professionals within industry. The course will be particularly useful in providing a better understanding of reports that delegates either have to deliver or receive from clients. *IMarEST* This course has been granted official CPD recognition by the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST).
