The DeuteroNoise dataset: An open, calibrated, multi-basin resource for vessel noise and natural soundscapes in European coastal waters

Puntos clave

• Vessel noise significantly impacts marine soundscapes in European coastal regions, affecting wildlife behavior and ecology.
• The DeuteroNoise dataset provides calibrated recordings from multiple basins, enabling precise analysis of sound levels and types.
• Assessment of soundscapes reveals the balance between vessel noise and natural sounds, essential for marine conservation efforts.
• The dataset supports future research and conservation strategies, though its findings need broader applicability testing.
