Good or bad vibrations? Impacts of anthropogenic vibration on the marine epibenthos (2017)
Journal Article
Roberts, L., & Elliott, M. (2017). Good or bad vibrations? Impacts of anthropogenic vibration on the marine epibenthos. The Science of the total environment, 595, 255-268. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.03.117

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Anthropogenic activities directly contacting the seabed, such as drilling and pile-driving, produce a significant vibration likely to impact benthic invertebrates. As with terrestrial organisms, vibration may be used by marine sp... Read More about Good or bad vibrations? Impacts of anthropogenic vibration on the marine epibenthos.

Use of baited remote underwater video (BRUV) and motion analysis for studying the impacts of underwater noise upon free ranging fish and implications for marine energy management (2016)
Journal Article
Roberts, L., Pérez-Domínguez, R., & Elliott, M. (2016). Use of baited remote underwater video (BRUV) and motion analysis for studying the impacts of underwater noise upon free ranging fish and implications for marine energy management. Marine pollution bulletin, 112(1-2), 75-85. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2016.08.039

© 2016 Elsevier Ltd Free-ranging individual fish were observed using a baited remote underwater video (BRUV) system during sound playback experiments. This paper reports on test trials exploring BRUV design parameters, image analysis and practical ex...

Assessing costs and benefits of measures to achieve good environmental status in European regional seas: challenges, opportunities, and lessons learnt (2016)
Journal Article
Börger, T., Broszeit, S., Ahtiainen, H., Atkins, J. P., Burdon, D., Luisetti, T., …Austen, M. C. (2016). Assessing costs and benefits of measures to achieve good environmental status in European regional seas: challenges, opportunities, and lessons learnt. Frontiers in Marine Science, 3(OCT), Article 192. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2016.00192

The EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) requires Member States to assess the costs and benefits of Programmes of Measures (PoMs) put in place to ensure that European marine waters achieve Good Environmental Status by 2020. An interdisciplin... Read More about Assessing costs and benefits of measures to achieve good environmental status in European regional seas: challenges, opportunities, and lessons learnt.

Sensitivity of Pagurus bernhardus (L.) to substrate-borne vibration and anthropogenic noise (2015)
Journal Article
Roberts, L., Cheesman, S., Elliott, M., & Breithaupt, T. (2016). Sensitivity of Pagurus bernhardus (L.) to substrate-borne vibration and anthropogenic noise. Journal of experimental marine biology and ecology, 474, 185-194. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jembe.2015.09.014

© 2015 Elsevier B.V. Despite the prevalence of vibration produced by anthropogenic activities impacting the seabed there are few data and little information as to whether these are detected by crustaceans and whether they interfere with their behavio...

Behavioural responses by marine fishes and macroinvertebrates to underwater noise (2015)
Thesis
Roberts, L. (2015). Behavioural responses by marine fishes and macroinvertebrates to underwater noise. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217006

The aim of this thesis was to explore and evaluate the key behavioural responses of coastal UK marine fishes and macroinvertebrates to anthropogenic noise. Work focussed upon two key aspects, water-borne acoustics and the relatively unstudied substra... Read More about Behavioural responses by marine fishes and macroinvertebrates to underwater noise.

Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving
Presentation / Conference
Harding, H. R., Voellmy, I., Simpson, S. D., Radford, A. N., Breithaupt, T., Elliott, M., …Voellmy, I. K. Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving

Activities directly interacting with the seabed, such as pile-driving, can produce vibrations that have the potential to impact benthic invertebrates within their vicinity. This stimuli may interfere with crucial behaviors such as foraging and predat...
