Growing concern about the impacts of anthropogenic noise on marine life has led to a global increase in the number of acoustic monitoring programmes aiming to quantify underwater soundscapes. However, low-frequency measurements in coastal sites may be affected by flow noise that is not actually present in the environment, but is caused by tidal flow turbulence around the hydrophone. At present, there is no standard way of removing this contaminating noise.

- As traditional oil reserves decline, the industry is shifting focus to underexplored regions like the deep waters of the Faroe-Shetland Channel in the NE Atlantic.
- This area is characterized by challenging metocean conditions, including high waves, strong winds, and complex currents, which complicate oil spill response efforts.
- The article evaluates current deepwater oil spill modeling practices in the FSC and highlights knowledge gaps and research priorities that could inform better responses in similar complicated oceanographic regions.
