Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the sound environment of Finnafjörður, a quiet fjord in northeast Iceland, over the year 2021/22 to understand how planned port construction will impact marine sounds and the ecosystem.
  • Researchers found that natural factors like wind and rain primarily influence the soundscape, with notable sounds from humpback whales, toothed whales, and fish, while human-made noise was less frequent.
  • This research provides a baseline to help manage noise during port construction and assess potential future impacts on the marine environment.

In this study, underwater sound levels of three commonly used UAV models (Mavic Pro Platinum, Phantom 4 Pro v2.0, Inspire 1 Pro) were recorded.
