15: A Study to Interpret the Biological Significance of Behavior Associated with 3S Experimental Sonar Exposures
نویسنده
چکیده
The long term goal of the 3S international cooperative research program is to investigate behavioral reactions of cetaceans to naval sonar and various control sounds, and the sound exposures required to elicit responses, in order to establish safety limits for sonar operations. 3S project efforts have been focused upon informing the ‘exposure-effect assessment’ component of a full risk-assessment framework (Fig. 1), which has been identified as a crucial missing component of the risk-assessment need (Boyd et al., 2008).

متن کاملMobile robot wall-following control using a behavior-based fuzzy controller in unknown environments
This paper addresses a behavior-based fuzzy controller (BFC) for mobile robot wall-following control.The wall-following task is usually used to explore an unknown environment.The proposed BFC consists of three sub-fuzzy controllers, including Straight-based Fuzzy Controller (SFC),Left-based Fuzzy Controller (LFC), and Right-based Fuzzy Controller (RFC).The proposed wall-...
متن کاملAn investigation of reactive behavior of yellowfin tuna schools to the purse seining process
The movement parameters of yellow fin tuna schools were analyzed by means of scanning sonar in tuna purse seine capture situations in the Oman Sea in June 2010. There was significant difference in swimming speed and radial swimming direction between the escaped and captured schools. In escaped cases, the fish schools swam faster with mostly horizontal avoidance behavior to the sound stimuli fro...
متن کاملEXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE POPULATION DENSITIES OF LOWEREXCITED STATES OF NEON
Many studies employing various methods have been carried out into the number densities of excited atoms in electrical discharges with inert gases [1,2,3], but the ranges of the discharge current and gas pressure is very limited in them all. In this work, the population densities of 3S, 3s' of neon have been investigated using the atomic absorption method. Since the discharge current and gas...
