Preface
This book presents the papers presented at the Third International Conference on the Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life that took place in August 2013 in Budapest, Hungary. The meeting, like its predecessors in Nyborg, Denmark (2007; Hawkins et al. 2008), and Cork, Ireland (2010; Popper and Hawkins 2012), introduced participants to the most recent research on the effects of man-made noise on aquatic animals and the aquatic environment. Almost 250 scientists, acousticians, engineers, regulators, and representatives of industry and environmental groups from 24 countries came together to share data and ideas and to meet colleagues with interests across the range of topics covered at the meeting. The effects of noise on a wide range of animals were discussed and debated over the 5 days of the conferenc
