Marine invertebrates and noise (2023)
Journal Article
Solé, M., Kaifu, K., Mooney, T. A., Nedelec, S. L., Olivier, F., Radford, A. N., …André, M. (2023). Marine invertebrates and noise. Frontiers in Marine Science, 10, Article 1129057. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2023.1129057

Within the set of risk factors that compromise the conservation of marine biodiversity, one of the least understood concerns is the noise produced by human operations at sea and from land. Many aspects of how noise and other forms of energy may impac... Read More about Marine invertebrates and noise.

Effects of pile driving sound playbacks and cadmium co-exposure on the early life stage development of the Norway lobster, Nephrops norvegicus (2022)
Journal Article
Stenton, C., Bolger, E., Michenot, M., Dodd, J., Wale, M., Briers, R., …Diele, K. (2022). Effects of pile driving sound playbacks and cadmium co-exposure on the early life stage development of the Norway lobster, Nephrops norvegicus. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 179, Article 113667. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2022.113667

There is an urgent need to understand how organisms respond to multiple, potentially interacting drivers in today’s world. The effects of the pollutants of anthropogenic sound (pile-driving sound playbacks) and waterborne cadmium were investigated ac...

Marine invertebrate anthropogenic noise research -Trends in methods and future directions (2021)
Journal Article
Wale, M., Briers, R., & Diele, K. (2021). Marine invertebrate anthropogenic noise research -Trends in methods and future directions. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 173(A), Article 112958. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112958

Selecting the correct methods to answer one's chosen question is key to conducting rigorous, evidence-based science. A disciplines' chosen methods are constantly evolving to encompass new insights and developments. Analysing these changes can be a us...

From DNA to ecological performance: Effects of anthropogenic noise on a reef-building mussel (2019)
Journal Article
Wale, M. A., Briers, R. A., Hartl, M. G., Bryson, D., & Diele, K. (2019). From DNA to ecological performance: Effects of anthropogenic noise on a reef-building mussel. Science of the Total Environment, 689, 126-132. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.06.380

Responses of marine invertebrates to anthropogenic noise are insufficiently known, impeding our understanding of ecosystemic impacts of noise and the development of mitigation strategies. We show that the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis, is negatively af... Read More about From DNA to ecological performance: Effects of anthropogenic noise on a reef-building mussel.

The Effects of Anthropogenic Noise Playbacks on Marine Invertebrates (2018)
Thesis
Wale, M. A. The Effects of Anthropogenic Noise Playbacks on Marine Invertebrates. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/1255476

Anthropogenic sound has profoundly changed the acoustic environment of aquatic habitats, with growing evidence that even a short exposure to man-made sound sources can negatively affect marine organisms. Marine invertebrates have received little atte... Read More about The Effects of Anthropogenic Noise Playbacks on Marine Invertebrates.

Beyond a simple effect: variable and changing responses to anthropogenic noise. (2016)
Book Chapter
Radford, A. N., Purser, J., Bruintjes, R., Voellmy, I. K., Everley, K. A., Wale, M. A., …Simpson, S. D. (2016). Beyond a simple effect: variable and changing responses to anthropogenic noise. In A. N. Popper, & A. Hawkins (Eds.), The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life II (901-907). New York, USA: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-2981-8_111

A growing number of experimental studies have demonstrated that exposure to anthropogenic noise can affect the behavior and physiology of a variety of aquatic organisms. However, work in other fields suggests that responses are likely to differ betwe... Read More about Beyond a simple effect: variable and changing responses to anthropogenic noise..

Noise negatively affects foraging and antipredator behaviour in shore crabs (2013)
Journal Article
Wale, M. A., Simpson, S. D., & Radford, A. N. (2013). Noise negatively affects foraging and antipredator behaviour in shore crabs. Animal Behaviour, 86(1), 111-118. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2013.05.001

Acoustic noise has the potential to cause stress, to distract and to mask important sounds, and thus to affect behaviour. Human activities have added considerable noise to both terrestrial and aquatic habitats, and there is growing evidence that anth...

Size-dependent physiological responses of shore crabs to single and repeated playback of ship noise (2013)
Journal Article
Radford, A. N., Wale, M. A., & Simpson, S. D. (2013). Size-dependent physiological responses of shore crabs to single and repeated playback of ship noise. Biology Letters, 9(2), https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2012.1194

Anthropogenic noise has fundamentally changed the acoustics of terrestrial and aquatic environments, and there is growing empirical evidence that even a single noise exposure can affect behaviour in a variety of vertebrate organisms. Here, we use con... Read More about Size-dependent physiological responses of shore crabs to single and repeated playback of ship noise.
