    • A 3D real-time algorithm based on array processing for the localization of cetaceans 

      Houégnigan, Ludwig; Zaugg, Serge Alain; Schaar, Mike van der; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      Hydrophone arrays permit to localize populations of cetaceans in realtime so as to study their behaviour in a non-invasive way and to work on their conservation. The most commonly used method based on time-difference-o ...

    • A Passive mitigation solution to the effects of human-generated sound on marine mammals 

      André, Michel; Delory, Eric; Schaar, Mike van der; Castell Balaguer, Joan Vicent (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems. Technical University of Catalonia (UPC)., 2005-10-01)
      Article
      Open Access

    • An automated, real time classification system for biological and anthropogenic sounds from fixed ocean observatories 

      Zaugg, Serge Alain; Schaar, Mike van der; Houégnigan, Ludwig; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      The automated, real time classification of acoustic events in the marine environment is an important tool to study anthropogenic sound pollution, marine mammals and for mitigating human activities that are potentially ...

    • Architecture for the real-time monitoring of noise pollution and marine mammal activity 

      Schaar, Mike van der; Zaugg, Serge Alain; Houégnigan, Ludwig; Castell Balaguer, Joan Vicent; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      As acoustic pollution in the oceans is increasing, it is becoming more important to monitor it, with special attention on its effects on the behaviour of cetaceans. In the near future governments may require constant ...

    • Electronic upgrades on the second generation of an autonomous and portable cetacean auditory screening system 

      Mas, Alex; Castell Balaguer, Joan Vicent; Río Fernandez, Joaquín del; Schaar, Mike van der; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      While noise is now considered a marine hazard that can directly affect cetaceans and induce a stranding, no clinical approach has yet introduced the detection of a possible hearing loss at a stranding site as a necessary ...

    • Modeling the underwater noise associated to the construction and operation of offshore wind turbines 

      Castell Balaguer, Joan Vicent; Schaar, Mike van der; Mas, Àlex; Zaugg, Serge Alain; Houégnigan, Ludwig; Morell Ybarz, María; Solé Carbonell, Marta; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      The operation and in particular the construction of offshore wind converters induce considerable underwater noise emissions. It is assumed that small whales and seals can be affected by noise from machines and vessels, ...

    • Real time classification of sperm whale clicks and shipping impulses from fixed ocean observatories 

      Zaugg, Serge Alain; Schaar, Mike van der; Houégnigan, Ludwig; André, Michel (SARTI (Technological Development Centre of Remote Acquisition and Data processing Systems), 2010-07-20)
      Article
      Open Access
      The automated acoustic detection of cetaceans in real time is an important tool to study their behaviour and distribution and for activating mitigation measures in the context of harmful anthropogenic activities at sea. ...
