The study, led by Brandon Southall, revealed that dolphins respond to military sonar at levels far below previous regulatory thresholds, challenging existing guidelines.
This research indicates a pressing need for revised regulations on military sonar usage, given the potential for significant behavioral disturbances in dolphins at previously unrecognized sound levels.
The observed behavioral changes in dolphins suggests that current policies may inadequately protect marine life from the impacts of military operations, highlighting an urgent need for reassessment.
Data from the study captures the nuances of dolphin behavior, utilizing various methods to illustrate how these animals interact with their environment amid sonar exposure.
