Evaluating the Long-Term Effects of Industrial Noise Pollution on Marine Ecosystems

Abstract

Benjiro Hasegawa

Industrial noise pollution, an often-overlooked consequence of human activities, has emerged as a significant stressor in marine ecosystems. This article delves into the long-term effects of industrial noise pollution on marine environments, exploring its sources, propagation, and impacts on marine organisms and ecosystems. We discuss the intricate mechanisms through which noise disrupts vital ecological processes, from communication and navigation to feeding and reproduction. Through a comprehensive review of existing research, we highlight the urgent need for enhanced regulations, mitigation strategies, and further interdisciplinary studies to safeguard the delicate balance of marine life and preserve the health of our oceans.
