    Abstract
    Underwater noise from vessels permeates many of the world’s oceans. While vessel sound emissions are at levels typically below those that would be acutely injurious to marine fauna, this noise can interfere with normal use of sounds, such as for prey and predator detection, socialization and mate attraction. Exposures to vessel noise over extended times, especially in key habitat areas, is likely to lead to chronic adverse effects including reduced feeding efficiency and difficulty finding mates. Assessments of the effects of shipping noise on marine fauna often use acoustic propagation models to predict the levels of sound exposure. These models require accurate vessel sound emission source levels. American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard S12.64-2009 (reaffirmed in 2014) describes procedures for measuring underwater sound from ships. The standard deals with radiated noise level (RNL) source levels that assume 20 Log(r) transmission loss (TL) between the v.....
