Black sea bass (<i>Centropristis striata) <\/i>support a valuable commercial fishery in the US. Yet, until recently, there was little known on BSB hearing and sound sensitivity.\u00a0 We are conducting experiments in controlled and field settings to quantitatively and qualitatively measure their response to offshore marine construction noise on BSB (and squid).\u00a0 We are finding that they are sound-sensitive and their hearing ability changes with age. The ability to hear has many ecological implications such as communication with conspecifics and predator detection, but also stresses that these animals may be impacted by anthropogenic noise.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct.png\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"seabassuct\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct.png\" alt=\"Sea Bass utc\" width=\"580\" height=\"462\" \/> <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct1.png\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"seabassuct1\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct1.png\" alt=\"Sea Bass utc\" width=\"461\" height=\"368\" \/> <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct2.png\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"seabassuct2\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/amooney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2021\/03\/seabassuct2.png\" alt=\"Sea Bass utc\" width=\"461\" height=\"361\" \/> <\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BSB responses to noise As anthropogenic activities in the world&#8217;s oceans are increasing, so too is the sound originating from these activities and consequently there is increased attention being paid to the ecological consequences of anthropogenic sound underwater.
