Abstract [en]
Measurement of particle motion from an offshore piling event in the North was conducted to determine noise levels. For this purpose, a bespoken sensor was developed that was both autonomous and sensitive up to 2 kHz. The measurement was undertaken both for unmitigated and mitigated piling. Three different types of mitigation techniques were employed. The acceleration zero-to-peak values and the acceleration exposure levels were determined. The results show that inferred mitigation techniques reduce the levels significantly as well as de-creases the power content of higher frequencies. These results suggest that mitigation has an effect and will reduce the effect ranges of impact on marine species.
