4 Dolphin Sightings 4
5 Offshore Wind Energy Areas 5
6 Potential ecological impacts Little risk of catastrophic impact compared to other forms of energy extraction, e.g. oil. Possible injury or disturbance caused by: Construction noise, particularly pile-driving Increased vessel traffic Collisions with turbine blades Changes in prey From Slabberkoorn et al
7 Assessing Environmental Impacts For stressors such as sound, the area of potential effect may extend far beyond the immediate vicinity of the proposed development. Sound 500m from pile-driving Sound 30km from pile-driving Bailey et al Mar. Poll. Bulletin Bailey et al Aquatic Biosystems 7
8 Project Goals Collect baseline data to: characterize patterns of occurrence of vocalizing marine mammal species characterize existing ambient noise levels 8
9 Passive acoustic monitoring Excellent for detecting vocally active species at high temporal resolution in all weather conditions Provides pervasive record Ability to detect other environmental and anthropogenic sounds Non-invasive 9

13 Data Collection Two types of devices: 1) The Marine Autonomous Recording Unit (MARU) designed by Cornell University collects a continuous archival record of the sound environment (sampling at 2kHz). Calibrated to measure absolute ambient noise levels Detects calls by large whales 13
14 Data collection 2) The C-POD is a tonal click detector that continuously monitors the kHz frequency range. Detects echolocation clicks by small cetaceans (dolphins and porpoises). 14

Pier 2016 Pier 2015 Potomac DPM/Hr Photos by Chris Bache At the CBL Pier at the mouth of the Patuxent River, dolphins tend to only be detected for up to 5 minutes at a time Passing by At the mouth of the Potomac River they often stayed up to 20 minutes Sticking around for a while
35 Number of Minutes Dolphins Detected per Hour What time of day?- Potomac In May, dolphins were detected most frequently in the early morning (4am-9am).
