The devices have also been employed to keep marine mammals away from fishing nets. [2] The devices are known as acoustic harassment devices (AHDs) and acoustic deterrent devices, which are smaller AHDs [3] or intended as an awareness tool to warn species to the presence of danger rather than as a tool of harassment at a much louder level.

Fisheries acoustics includes a range of research and practical application topics using acoustical devices as sensors in aquatic environments. Acoustical techniques can be applied to sensing aquatic animals , zooplankton , and physical and biological habitat characteristics.
Yelp Inc. is an American company that develops the Yelp.com website and the Yelp mobile app, which publishes crowd-sourced reviews about businesses. It also operates Yelp Guest Manager, a table reservation service.
It is published by the Acoustical Society of America and the editor-in-chief is James F. Lynch (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution). JASA contains news items, book reviews, references to contemporary papers, reviews of acoustical patents, and standards news. [1] According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2023 impact factor ...
Acoustic tags are small sound-emitting devices that allow the detection and/or remote tracking of organisms in aquatic ecosystems. Acoustic tags are commonly used to monitor the behavior of fish. Studies can be conducted in lakes, rivers, tributaries, estuaries or at sea.
Acoustic survey in fishing is one of the research methods that can detect the abundance of target species using acoustic detectors. For example, many pelagic fisheries are generally very scattered over a broad ocean and difficult to detect. Hence survey vessel with acoustic detector emits sound waves to estimate the density of plankton and fish ...
Acoustic quieting might consider: Noise generation: by limiting the noise at its source, Sympathetic vibrations: by acoustic decoupling, Resonations: by acoustic damping or changing the size of the resonator, Sound transmissions: by reducing transmission using many methods (depending whether the transmission is through air, liquid, or solid), or
A long-range acoustic device (LRAD), acoustic hailing device (AHD) or sound cannon is a specialized loudspeaker that produces sound at high power for communicating at a distance. It has been used as a method of crowd control , which has caused permanent hearing damage , having an extremely high decibel capacity (up to 160 dB measured at one ...
