A Parametric Analysis and Sensitivity Study of the Acoustic Propagation for Renewable Energy
February 2020 — Atlantic Coast, United States
Client: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)
A modelling and analysis study to facilitate improved risk prediction of underwater noise impacts of offshore wind development involving pile driving. It recommends the most efficient acoustic models and ranks the most influential environmental parameters at two representative sites off the United States Atlantic Coast.
