Abstract:There is growing concern over the impact of human intrusion into the habitat of certain wild animal species. A major part of this intrusion is in the form of noise from moving vehicles. The level on the ground or underwater caused by moving noise sources has been dealt with as single-event intrusions that may cause startle and associated physiological responses, and as cumulative noise exposures. The later approach allows correlation between the cumulative noise exposure of the whole animal population, and the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
