RECENT ADVANCES IN THE CONTROL OF THE IMPACT OF THE UNDERWATER NOISE EMISSIONS BY COMMERCIAL SHIPS
The rising concern about the environmental impact of ship noise on the marine fauna recently pushed national and international bodies to face the problem. In the last decade a few mass strandings of cetaceans due to sea trials of navy sonars (Frantzis (1998)), enforced the interest on noise pollutio...
