Data on the predicted received sound exposure levels (SEL; dB re 1 µPa^2 s), single pulse for an impact strike with the maximum hammer energy for that piling location, depth averaged for each CPOD sampling sites. Filename = “Graham_BOWL_cMMMP_Received_noise_levels_18pilinglocations_allCPODlocations_data_2019-05-01.csv” Six columns = Deployment_number, Turbine, Unweighted_SS_SEL, NOAA_SS_SEL, Southall_SS_SEL, Aud_SS_SEL. Deployment_number is the CPOD deployment number for that location. Turbine is the piling location. Unweighted_SS_SEL is the unweighted the predicted received sound exposure level (SEL; dB re 1 µPa^2 s), single pulse for an impact strike with the maximum hammer energy for that piling location, depth averaged for that CPOD site. NOAA_SS_SEL is the predicted SEL frequency weighted by the generalised weighting function for high frequency cetaceans proposed by NOAA (2016 & 2018: see methods in paper for references). Southall_SS_SEL is the predicted SEL frequency weighted by the high-frequency cetacean weighting function proposed by Southall et al. (2007: see methods in paper for reference). Aud_SS_SEL is the predicted SEL frequency weighted by a harbour porpoise specific audiogram from Kastelein et al. (2010: see methods in paper for reference).
