DIAPHONIA

Understanding the concrete effects of sound on marine life

DIagnostic framework to Assess and Predict tHe impact Of underwater NoIse on mArine species

DIAPHONIA

is a three-year European initiative designed to bridge existing knowledge gaps concerning the effects of underwater noise on various marine organisms within the marine ecosystem. These encompass cetaceans, and invertebrates and commercially significant fish species found in diverse European basins.

 

The project is supported by JPI Oceans and the United Nations Ocean Decade for Sustainable Development, demonstrating their commitment to fostering sustainable practices in the marine environment.
