19、stical Society of America ( www.acousticalsociety.org ) is to increase and diffuse the knowledge of acoustics and promote its practical applications. The ASA is recognized as the worlds premier international scientifi c society in acoustics, and counts among its more than 7,000 members professionals

20、 in the fi elds of bioacoustics, engineering, architecture, speech, music, oceanography, signal processing, sound and vibration, and noise control. Since its fi rst meeting in 1929, The Acoustical Society of America has enjoyed a healthy growth in membership and in stature. The present membership of

21、 approximately 7,000 includes leaders in acoustics in the United States of America and other countries. The Society has attracted members from various fi elds related to sound including engineering, physics, oceanography, life sciences, noise and noise control, architectural acoustics; psychological

22、 and physiological acoustics; applied acoustics; music and musical instruments; speech communication; ultrasonics, radiation, and scattering; mechanical vibrations and shock; underwater sound; aeroacoustics; macrosonics; acoustical signal processing; bioacoustics; and many more topics. To assure ade

23、quate attention to these separate fi elds and to new ones that may develop, the Society establishes technical committees and technical groups charged with keeping abreast of developments and needs of the membership in their specialized fi elds. This diversity and the opportunity it provides for inte

24、rchange of knowledge and points of view has become one of the strengths of the Society. The Societys publishing program has historically included the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America , the magazine Acoustics Today ( www.acousticstoday.org ), a newsletter, and various books authored by it

25、s members across the many topical areas of acoustics. In addition, ASA members are involved in the development of acoustical standards concerned with terminology, measurement procedures, and criteria for determining the effects of noise and vibration.

26、iiAbst ract This Technical Report presents the outcome of a Working Group that was estab-lished to determine broadly applicable sound exposure guidelines for fi shes and sea turtles. After consideration of the diversity of fi sh and sea turtles, guidelines were developed for broad groups of animals,

27、 defi ned by the way they detect sound. Different sound sources were considered in terms of their acoustic characteristics and appropriate metrics defi ned for measurement of the received levels. The resul-tant sound exposure guidelines are presented in a set of tables. In some cases numer-ical guid

28、elines are provided, expressed in appropriate metrics. When there were insuffi cient data to support numerical values, the relative likelihood of effects occurring was evaluated, although the actual likelihood of effects depends on the received level. These sound exposure guidelines, which are based

29、 on the best scien-tifi c information at the time of writing, should be treated as interim. The expectation is that with more research, the guidelines can be refi ned and more cells in the tables completed. Recommendations are put forward defi ning the research requirements of highest priority for e

30、xtending these interim exposure guidelines. ixForeword This Foreword is for information only , and is not a part of the Technical Report ASA S3 / SC1.4 TR - 2014 Sound Exposure Guidelines for Fishes and Sea Turtles .

Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Stan

33、man animals, including both risk to individual animals and to the long-term viability of populations. Animals to be covered may potentially include commercially grown food animals; animals harvested for food in the wild; pets; laboratory animals; exotic species in zoos, oceanaria or aquariums; or fr

There is also often a requirement to prepare environmental assessments or statements that can lead to mitigation measures and/or restrictions for proposed activities. Because few scientifi c data a

40、re available regarding the effects of sound, particularly for fi shes and sea turtles, assessment procedures and subsequent regula-tory and mitigation measures are often severely limited in their relevance and effi cacy. This creates uncertainty among all stakeholders as to how sound-producing explo

41、ra-tion and operations should proceed. In 1998 the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) convened an international panel of experts to prepare noise exposure guidelines for marine mammals. NOAAs intent was to provide its regulatory staff with the means of issuing permits on und

42、erwater noise production based on a set of orga-nized principles and facts instead of on a case-by-case basis. The aim was to reduce regulatory uncertainty for all stakeholders by replacing precaution with scientifi c facts. The panels initial guidelines appeared in a seminal paper (Southall et al.

43、2007 ). In 2004, NOAA convened a similar panel to develop noise exposure criteria for fi shes and turtles with the same goals in mind. It included three members of the marine mammal panel (WTE, RLG, and BLS) for continuity. When NOAAs support for this effort ended in 2006, the panel was organized as

44、 a Working Group (WG) under the ANSI-Accredited Standards Committee S3/SC 1, Animal Bioacoustics, which is sponsored by the Acoustical Society of America. In addition, this Working Group, through its own efforts, obtained external funding for the project (see Acknowledgements). The Working Group met

45、 eight times between 2004 and 2010. It gathered and reviewed papers from both the peer-review and grey literature that presented data on the exposure of fi sh and sea turtles to Chapter 1 Introduction 2various sound sources. Subsequent smaller meetings were held from 2011 to 2013 to review and fi na

46、lize this manuscript. During that time, fi ndings were updated and the revised document was continuously reviewed by the whole Working Group. The guidelines presented here are primarily based on data in the peer-reviewed literature up until mid-2013. These Guidelines represents the Working Groups co

47、nsensus efforts to establish broadly applicable sound exposure guidelines for fi shes and sea turtles across the complete range of taxa and sound types, and to consider many impacts, rather than just injury. The Working Group adopts some of the general approaches used to set sound exposure guideline

48、s for marine mammals (Southall et al. 2007 ). However, several factors make the present Guidelines differ in format and conclusions from Southall et al. ( 2007 ). These factors include:1) There are more than 32,000 species of fi sh compared to about 130 species of marine mammals; 2) Fishes are much more diverse anatomically, physiologically, ecologically, and behaviorally than are marine mammals; 3) Most fi shes respond to the parti
