Analyzing underwater sound emissions from piling of turbine foundations during wind farm installation in the Belgian North Sea.
Documenting underwater noise reductions when converting from diesel-power to a hybrid system with a clean electric motor.
A 2-year study deploying 20 underwater recorders from offshore Halifax to the northern Labrador shelf.
Cataloging underwater fish sounds across British Columbia: JASCO scientist Xavier Mouy teamed with fellow experts to record and identify BC coastal fish.
Studying the underwater vocalizations of the elusive ribbon seal in 1+ years of acoustic data spanning a vast area of the Arctic seas.
