The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life II
The meeting of Aquatic Noise 2013 will introduce participants to the most recent research data, regulatory issues and thinking about effects of man-made noise and will foster critical cross-disciplinary discussion between the participants. Emphasis will be on the cross-fertilization of ideas and findings across species and noise sources. As with its predecessor, The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life: 3rd International Conference will encourage discussion of the impact of underwater sound, its regulation and mitigation of its effects. With over 100 contributions from leading researchers, a wide range of sources of underwater sound will be considered.
The Seal Hunt
In The Seal Hunt: Cultures, Economies and Legal Regimes, Nikolas Sellheim offers a deep analysis of the seal hunt worldwide. He engages on a journey from the northern to the southern hemisphere and explores how the seal hunt has shaped cultures all over the world up to this day. By analysing the different national and international regimes dealing with the seal hunt, Sellheim shows how the perception of the seal and the seal hunt has changed over time and space. Focusing on the European Union and the World Trade Organization, the volume offers an account on how opposition towards the seal hunt has found its way onto the international spheres of governance and trade.
Working Group on Marine Mammal Eclogy (WGMME)
The Working Group on Marine Mammal Ecology met in 2021 to address new information on marine mammal ecology relevant to management. Two terms of references were standing ToRs; under the first of these, ToR A, new and updated information on seal and cetacean population abundance, population/stock structure, manage-ment frameworks as well as anthropogenic threats to individual health and population status were reviewed along with findings on threats to marine mammals such as bycatch, pollution, marine debris and noise. ToR B is a cooperation with WGBIODIV to review species-specific for-aging distributions (considering horizontal and vertical dimensions depending on data availa-bility) and to es...
Harbour Seal Monitoring and Evaluation for the Luchterduinen Offshore Windfarm
Though it seems unlikely that marine mammals, including seals suffer at a large scale from direct mortality caused by the construction or operation of windfarms at sea, they are likely to be affected by disturbance and habitat alterations.In 2014, Luchterduinen windfarm was constructed in the Dutch coastal zone south west of IJmuiden and the permit (WV/2009-1229) requested monitoring with respect to both harbour and grey seals. Two main questions were formulated:1. How do seals use the coastal zone? The aim was to gain insight in harbour and grey seal movement routes along the Dutch North Sea coastal zone (between the Wadden Sea and the Delta region).2. What is the impact of Luchterduinen on...
