Swimming Behavior of Roach (Rutilus rutilus) and Three-spined Stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) in Response to Wind Power Noise and Single-tone Frequencies

The aims of this study were to examine how swimming behavior of roach Rutilus rutilus and three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus were influenced by single-frequency sounds and noise generated by an offshore wind turbine, and the function of sound pressure level. In this study, two different...

Zusammenfassung:The aims of this study were to examine how swimming behavior of roach Rutilus rutilus and three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus were influenced by single-frequency sounds and noise generated by an offshore wind turbine, and the function of sound pressure level. In this study, two different species of fish were exposed to single-tone frequencies and sound generated by an offshore wind power plant.
