Estimating received sound levels at the seafloor beneath seismic survey sources

The offshore seismic survey industry typically uses arrays of devices called airguns to generate the intense, lowfrequency sounds required for imaging the seabed geology. Concerns have arisen about the impacts that these high intensity sounds may have on benthic species, such as shellfish, site atta...
