Comparison of underwater noise at the Chukchi Plateau under open-water and ice-covered conditions
A comparison study on underwater noise at the Chukchi plateau with and without ice cover helps to understand the rapidly changing Arctic Ocean, especially in the context of global warming. Underwater noise recorded at a receiving depth of 519.5 m, from September 9, 2017 to March 8, 2018, on the Chuk...

A comparison study on underwater noise at the Chukchi plateau with and without ice cover helps to understand the rapidly changing Arctic Ocean, especially in the context of global warming.
