Abstract

Offshore wind development presents huge potential for climate change mitigation, but loud underwater noises produced during construction can negatively impact marine species. Recent research shows that careful planning and noise-reduction technologies can effectively reduce impacts on critically endangered North Atlantic right whales at relatively minor additional cost.
